Tandberg TelePresence
TANDBERG redefines the meeting experience from the feeling when entering the room to the sensation of being at the same table. With the simplicity of starting a meeting, the focus is solely on the experience of the executive.
The Telepresence T3 and Telepresence T1 take visual collaboration to a new level with distinguished qualities and features:
* Immersive - feel as if you’re in the same room. The system, table, personal touch collaboration display and ceiling-mounted studio lighting add to the ultimate meeting experience.
* Simple - the touch collaboration display delivers high definition presentation capabilities and simple control built right into the table.
* Access for Everyone - The boundaries of dissimilar networks, multi-vendor systems, inconsistent quality and functional complexity are eliminated so that colleagues, customers and partners can communicate with total ease. Standards-compliant technology makes it all happen.
* Headquarter offices and larger spaces
* 6 to 9 people
Sonos – Wireless Sound System
If you haven’t heard about Sonos in the past the best way to describe it is that it’s a music system that allows you to connect up to 42 zones, allowing you to play music throughout your house from a central music collection – stored on a computer or a NAS drive connected to your network.
Designed around the impression of a single speaker, the unit actually has a 5-driver speaker system, including two tweeters, two mid-range drivers and a built-in subwoofer.
Coming in white and silver, like other elements in the Sonos range, the silver speaker grill “is” the front of the unit and the only controls to be found are the volume up and down and mute button on the top.
It’s super easy to set up; the iPhone app discovers any Sonos hardware, which you name and then have access to from the main menu. You choose music, either from a location on the network (like a computer, or in my case an Apple Time Capsule) or from streaming services like Pandora, Napster and Last.FM.
