It is final: eBook Pavillion at CES, 2010

Dear All:

Many of you that have read my blog know the fight we had last year with CES to get so much as an eBook category. Their question was like: "which end of my computer do I place on top of an eBook Reader".

This year CEA (which runs CES) listened and we not only have a category... there will be a special 50,000 square foot eBook Pavillion inthe Central Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center at the next CES (January 7-10, 2010). eBook Readers and eBooks and accessories and publishers, and more will all have a central area of the show. For what we love... CES has finally seen the light!!

This is now definite and people are buying up booths in it. I hear the IDPF is sponsoring the area. So, if eBook Readers are your cup of tea... you now have one show that will feature all you could want.

Again, the show says "for the trade only" but that is old poppycock. You will have no problem registering and registration is normally free. Stay in the Downtown Area of Las Vegas and great rooms will run less than $79 a night. Or stay at a Downtown Area Motel for $39-$49 a night. There are free shuttle buses to take you to the Convention Center.
