Technology-savvy from all walks of life gathered at the Consumer
Electronics Live! Manila 2008 (CEL Manila) as it showcased the
newest gadgets, devices and equipments available in the market at
the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City.
CEL Manila, which was produced and organized by
Summit Live!, was held from October 24 to 25.
The event, considered the first trade electronic
show held locally, will be held annually to update the consumers and
industries of the latest products in audio, video, digital imaging,
computer products, home entertainment, home appliances, mobile and
wireless technology.
”We truly want everybody to experience the new
products presented and to relate to the exhibit as a whole so we
made the concept of technology experiential. We had to translate
technology into something everybody can fully feel and understand
veering away from the usual idea that technology is cold, clinical
or complicated,” Maricar Parco, general manager of Summit Live!
said in a statement.
Among the big exhibitors in the trade show
include Apple/Senco, Canon, HP, LG Electronics, Nokia, Samsung and
Sony. Other companies like Alpine, BMW, Bose, Creative, Fuji Xerox,
JBL, Lucerne, Mazda, Myphone, Sennheiser and Western Digital were
also participated.
During the three-day show, Canon offered 40-
percent discount on its selected cameras. Myphone also gave
70-percent off on its selected products.
