Kicking off Day 2

SEMA welcomed us again with the sound of stereos with thumping base (well, pounding base is probably more accurate). The KVH team is recovered from Day 1, which was tremendously busy and saw us fielding good, steady traffic in the booth, meetings with dealers and sales reps, as well as bouncing back and forth between our display and the GM booth. It's not really a booth, actually...more like a carpeted parking lot with some amazing vehicles, three of which are showing of TracVision A7 and live DIRECTV while one is equipped with TracNet 100 and Microsoft's MSN TV service.

The media is also out in force and our message of live mobile media continues to get us positive attention. Following yesterday's USA Today story, it looks like we may also be part of a Wall Street Journal article about SEMA tentatively scheduled to run on Thursday (coming soon to a newsstand near you). We also got some airtime on Car and Driver Radio as well as the SEMA edition of "Make It Hot", a celebrity car customization show.


KVH communications manager Chris Watson (the 6-foot tall short guy on the right) brings “Making It Hot” audience members up to speed on TracVision A7.

Now, we're ready to go for Day 2. Top on the list of today's events – two autograph sessions with "Mad Mike" from Pimp My Ride.
