It’s kind of like a wedding. Months of preparation, lots of great dialogue, pictures, video, people from all over the world, and then, poof! it’s done. At least for this year. Lunch at Piero’s 2011 was a fabulous nexus of innovators and reporters, analysts and video crews. Media joined us from the Las Vegas Convention Center across the street to see apps, mobile devices, gadgets, tablets, software, and some technologies that you will only see in next generation entertainment and PC devices. Find out all about our sponsors here. Thank you to everyone who joined us, both sponsors and editorial teams. Videos and photo album will be posted here. But for now, I’m taking a couple of days off. See you here next week.
D-Link showcased its CEA Innovation Awards winners including the Boxee Box, the Pebble media players, the D-Link Home Monitoring Starter Kit and the D-Link Home Energy Starter Kit. Also at the Lunch at Piero’s innovator and media event during CES 2010: D-Link showed the industry’s first 600Mbps home wireless access point with four data streams, a very fast 450Mbps touch screen and a portable N pocket router that lets users set up a hotspot anywhere, and the D-Link 3G Door phone, which acts like a standard doorbell, but is anything but ordinary.
Movies, TV shows, Netflix, personal multimedia and social media all come together on your living room screen thanks to the Boxee box powered by D-Link. Boxee licensed its software to consumer and small business networking powerhouse, D-Link, to make the kind of media and social networking experience that was available on Windows and Linux PCs and Macs available on a highly attractive set top box device that enhances any living room decor. See it for yourself in this video interview with Boxee’s Andrew Kippen shot at the D-Link demo at the Lunch at Piero’s media and innovator event during CES 2010.
