It was a fruity trip to Vegas once again! And to be honest, there’s nothing depressed about this whole economy thing what-so-ever if you were at the 2009 ISC West Show! Booths were packed with interested buyers; new cameras & DVRs were shown; latest technologies were introduced, etc. People were amazed and wowed not only by our new facial reorganization and the license plate tracking software we brought to the show, but also the 3G auto-tracking PTZs. There were a lot of things going on, and let me show you some highlights from the show.

Oh, by the way, GREAT JOB JEN!

If you are…Make sure drop by Booth 20109 (the one with a huge monitor wall ) and talk to our representatives to find out how to get yourself one of these LIMITED LUXURY TRAVEL BAG!!!

Two days ago, I sent out E-Invitations to our customers with some info on this bag. The response was CRAZY…So many people are fond of it! Don’t miss out!

See you in VEGAS!

Friday, May 23, 2008 Bolide has donated $2,000 to help the victims of the devastating 7.9 magnitude earthquake in China’s Sichuan province. We sincerely thank our employees, friends and all the donors to their generous support. Official figures state that 69,197 are confirmed dead, including 68,636 in Sichuan province, and 374,176 injured, with 18,340 listed as missing, but these figures may further increase as more reports come in. The earthquake left about 4.8 million people homeless, though the number could be as high as 11 million. It is the deadliest and strongest earthquake to hit China since the 1976 Tangshan earthquake, which killed at least 240,000 people.
