I was at the CEA Line Shows with bnetTV at booth #73. Some folks I interviewed include: Noel Lee, “Head Monster”, from Monster, maker the famous Monster Beats Headphones by Dr. Dre.

At the Mobile Apps Showdown Winner’s Circle, I met Jim Del Favero, VP of Software Products from Personal Capital, a Silicon Valley venture backed company showcasing their tablet and smartphone apps for personal investments and financial management. Kimberly Awad and Linda Krebs for Pressman Toy Corporation – I was very excited to have found them as Pressman made the original old school fishing pond toy! Now they have an iPad version. Kurio was also among the Winner’s Circle, they showcased their parental controls enabled Android 4.0 tablets, which were preloaded with kid-friendly game content and web filtering that allows for family-safe web browsing.
