“COMDEX/Fall ’99 today released the full line-up of technology
and vendor pavilions confirmed for this year’s event. Featured
technologies in these exhibit areas include information appliances,
the Bluetooth wireless initiative, Universal Serial Bus and Kodak
solutions.”

“The Bluetooth technology initiative, which looks to
revolutionize wireless connectivity for personal and business
mobile devices, will make its first appearance at COMDEX/Fall this
year. Bluetooth looks to expand the communications capabilities of
mobile computers, mobile phones and other mobile devices by
enabling seamless voice and data transmission via wireless,
short-range radio, without the need for cables. The open
specification for this innovative technology is being developed
through the combined contributions of the members of the Bluetooth
Special Interest Group (SIG), which includes the Bluetooth founding
companies: Ericsson, IBM, Intel, Nokia and Toshiba. The
Bluetooth Pavilion
at COMDEX/Fall will bring together the
leading companies of the Bluetooth SIG to answer questions related
to the technology, as well as demonstrate Bluetooth-enabled
applications and solutions.”

“Co-located with COMDEX/Fall ’99 will be the debut of Linux
Business Expo, a forum for business managers and IT professionals
to learn more about making an enterprise investment in Linux. More
information on Linux Business Expo is available at
