Here is what a couple of Navigation and Telematic exhibitors thought

Success at CeBIT Australia 2008


CeBIT Australia has proven itself to be the right environment for us to meet with potential customers and resellers. With the launch of our in-car computer we were unsure whether we would be inundated by loads of tyre kickers...I am extremely happy to say that we were kept constantly busy over the course of the show by visitors of the highest calibre! We look forward to attending CeBIT Australia in 2009.
