This year iRex Technologies will be attending the BrightLive event held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The event is organized by the Dutch innovative lifestyle magazine: Bright and will be host to many cool innovative products. We look forward to meet you there and in case you can’t make it, make sure to check out the i-to-i blog as I’ll be covering the highlights here.

**update** BrightLive has been delayed until 4 & 5 April.

Yesterday was the first day on the Frankfurt Book Fair and there was quite some interest in digital reading by the media this year. We even made it into the ZDF 19.00 Heute. You can watch the fragment here.

Last month iRex Technologies attended the IFA, one of the world’s largest consumer electronic trade show, held in Berlin, Germany. It already became a little bit of a tradition over the last several years that the IFA is promoted by Miss IFA, a model with very red hair.

This year was no different and we have a few shots of her showing off the iLiad. You can view them here and here.

The Frankfurt Book Fair will take place from 10 to 14 October this year and it is considered to be the meeting place for everybody who is anybody in the industry and will be host to authors, publishers, booksellers, librarians, art dealers, illustrators, agents, journalists and of course readers.

iRex Technologies will be attending the fair and you can find us at the digital market place in Hall 4.2 Stand J 442. I will also be present at the fair and if you are interested to have a chat with us or have a look at the iLiad and hear about latest developments than we are more than happy to welcome you there.

For those not coming to the fair, I will cover the highlights of the fair here on the i-to-i blog. One of the things I am certainly gonna check out is a presentation from Amazon: The Future of Books: digital text at Amazon. During which Genevieve Kunst, the Head of Business development for Digital Media will introduce Amazon’s current digital offerings and latest developments.

With the recent events that seem to indicate that the launch of the Kindle is imminent, will this be the event where they will unveil the Kindle?
