were domintated by: 1) iPod covers, 2) laptop carrying cases, 3) book
publishers/sellers (that's a good sign, I think), and 4) drive
manufacturers. There were several software booths that interested me,
as usual mostly those on the fringes. I suppose the web is really
hitting show developers, and one reason there were so many iPod and
laptop cover makers is that those are the kinds of things that can't be
sold as easily on the web. It's a pity, because at a busy show with a
lot of exhibitors, serendipty often allows you to find software you
might have missed otherwise, which did happen to me today. The small
show doesn't bode poorly for Apple, as much as it does for IDG who
sponsors it.
