Comdex goes into a coma
Posted by Dominic Basulto
Jupitermedia's Alan Meckler takes a minute to gloat over the demise of the Comdex trade show:
"The Comdex folks today announced that the Comdex tradeshow is taking another 12 month vacation (making it 24 months) of rest cure, but that it will be back in 2006. I can only presume that the team that runs MediaLive (the owner of the dead Comdex show) must think we are all on Jim Jones' Kool-Aid if they think anyone in the world believes that Comdex will ever run again."
Even if Comdex somehow does manage a miraculous return in 2006, says Meckler, "it probably could fit into the lobby of the local Starbucks about two blocks away from the Las Vegas Convention Center."
