i went to coex mall the other day to drop by the 18th annual solutions & contents exhibition. from their website:

here are some photos! (i apologize if there's some bluriness; because it's a pain in the butt to take out my canon g5, i had to use the camera on my pda to take pictures...)

lots of lcd and plasma tv's

on the right, a pretty awesome video play, that will sell around $400

iriver's mp3 players... not very impressive since it's nothing new; just their current models

on the right, these girls were actually explaining an extremely boring topic, but the crowd was huge, for obvious reasons

the innards of the lg video player...


on the left, me, and on the right my roommate with the typical korean pose

on the left, lg's tablet pc, with a really good touch sensitive screen. on the right, a video-enabled cell phone, which was playing a jun jihyun ad (i think samsung ad) at 30fps!

a really huge tower of 42" LCD screens... i'll take just one please!
