Interop Premieres New Technology; Everyone Wins: Page 2 of 2

I applaud these vendors and the InteropNet volunteers for taking a risk and giving us a peak at products and technologies that are still in process. I don't think any harm was done to intellectual property, and no one got the upper hand on competitors. The people who saw the demonstrations, and I talked to a few, were impressed by the technology and interested enough to want to learn more. They appreciated coming away from a booth with something other than marketing material and tchotchkes for the kids (or themselves). I'd like to see more running demonstrations like these at other shows. Show, don't tell, what you are working on. That will garner mindshare. Another squeeze ball won't.
