The web makes it easy to get information on new items. You still need to know 
they exist, happen to stumble over an announcement about them while web 
surfing (ie. by running across an announcement or review), find them during a 
web search, or by word of mouth or mailing list.

Interesting to hear why some companies didn't attend the IT360 show. It would 
be interesting to know if a "lack of focus" for a show has anything to do with 
why we don't seem to have Comdex up here anymore.
