When small and medium-sized businesses or K-12s want to manage how their Internet bandwidth is being used, they turn to Cymphonix. On average, 50% of any Internet connection is used for browsing--some critical and necessary, and some not. The other 50% of any Internet connection is used for Internet applications. Voice over IP (VoIP) and database backups are essential. However, other applications may be non-critical, like peer-to-peer, streaming media and music downloads. Cymphonix's Network Composer is an inline network appliance that provides a secure web gateway to manage both browsing and IP application activity. Brent Nixon, President of Cymphonix, shares an overview of the company and discusses some of the key issues IT managers are worried about, including the emergence of web apps that anticipate near unlimited bandwidth. Rather than pay for more bandwidth, Cymphonix lets IT managers see the top bandwidth users, top sites visited, and real-time data activity and manage and filter traffic through static and dynamic port filtering.Tags: Bandwidth Management, Brent Nixon, Cymphonix, filtering, IP Traffic

Powercast's chief inventor and CEO John Shearer is pitching manufacturers on a wireless vision: a world where gadgets and devices are powered and charged without all the hassle of wires. The Powercast Wireless Power Platform includes a Power Caster and a Power Harvester. The Power Harvesters are attached to something like an iPod or cell phone and can draw power from Power Casters by bringing the device within close proximity. Powercast was shown off at CES 2007 and now in 2008 they have added more wattage. Hopefully for those of us who hate packing chargers and attaching wires, Powercast will find partners that can leverage their platform.Tags: CES, John Shearer, Powercast, wireless, CESBlogHaus, BlogHaus

Know one of those guys who is always acting like he's strumming the air guitar while listening to music? Well then this $29.99 toy is the perfect gift, the Guitar Hero Air Guitar Rocker. Not only is George a sales guy working the CES floor, he's also an accomplished air guitarist capable of riffing just like Tony Iommi or Eddie Van Halen. The Air Guitar Rocker comes with 10 tracks that are loaded on a cartridge -- certainly a model to support expansion for new genres or additional songs.

Match your strumming to the correct tempo, and you'll play a perfect "More Than A Feeling" solo, just like Boston's Barry Gooudreau.Tags: Air Guitar Rocker, Brad Baldwin, CES, Guitar Hero, Jada Toys, music

ClearOne, a Salt Lake City-based company, holds a majority of the global market share in the professional audio conferencing systems category.

With full-duplexing, noise canceling, noise reduction, high-quality microphones and industrial design to enhance a voice, ClearOne products pack the best in audio technology. Brad Baldwin learns about ClearOne from Kurt Olsen during the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. Olsen shows off the Chat 50, which lets the mobile executive place calls via her cellphone or plug into a laptop via USB for Skype or softphone use.Tags: audio, Cellphone, CES, ClearOne, conference call, Skype, softphone, bloghaus
