Besides Californian companies and many others around the world, tech companies from Singapore too made their way up to CeBIT to garner more business opportunities. Here's a sample of few companies we met up to find out what they were offering to the rest in the industry:-

 Corbell International Pte. Ltd. was present at CeBIT 2009 and they were presenting their LongSong brand of audio systems - designed and manufactured by them. They have over 10 years of such experience and are specialists in mini Hi-Fi / audio systems such as these shown here.

 Notice a subwoofer for these tiny integrated audio systems? The company has several years experience on bringing the best audio out from small enclosures. They also use quality parts like toroidal transformers and that make up for the heavier than usual weight of these petite systems.

 They are also the OEM designer and manufacturer for other companies and brands, such as Nakamichi.

 Idea Interactive is another company that made their mark at CeBIT 2009. These guys are marketing their IdeaPen which acts as an interactive whiteboard, wireless mouse and laser pointer. The novelty of the product isn't only in the hardware, but that of the easy to use software that works with it.

 You can scribble, write, draw on the provided sketch program - all on the projected wall or screen. Better still, make changes, add notes, pointers, highlights and more to the presentation all with the IdeaPen on the projected presentation. Plus save all the changes. If you few of your members weren't able to attend your presentation, no sweat. The IdeaPen allows you to save your entire presentation with voice and all the changes/notes made via an AVI file and can be viewed later very much the same way it was presented, minus your physical self.

  It is also able to discern your writing and convert it to text.

 The only learning curve is handling all the functions via the IdeaPen, which though tricky at first, it should come out fine with practice and familiarization.
