Mr. Eisses will be a part of an expert panel discussing whether current home networking solutions are following the K.I.S.S. (keep it simple, stupid) rule in media sharing. With over 20 years of experience in the technology industry, Mr. Eisses will be talking about simplified device connectivity solutions that use standard interfaces, such as USB, to connect PC/Mac to TV in the most cost effective way. These solutions provide true plug and play capabilities, use no new wires, are easy to install, and are highly reliable, secure with excellent performance in extending the computer benefits to any room.
By 2010, U.S. consumer spending for home technical support services will reach nearly $1 billion, with much of this growth based on the current product and service innovations that will be on display at Connections.
