Taipei, Nov. 28 (CNA) The annual Information Technology Month (IT Month) will be in Taipei Dec. 2-10 on the first of four stops around Taiwan, organizers said Monday.
Cheap computers and accessories probably come to mind when average consumers think about IT Month -- one of Taiwan's largest IT-related events -- but there's more to it than that this year, organizers said.
In addition to computers and electronic gadgets, the event will focus on the theme of "Embrace the digital life," displaying all the latest technology and hardware that will shape the future "digital home," and held in Exhibition Hall I and III of the Taipei World Trade Center.
The month-long fair, which last year registered more than 720,000 visitors in Taipei alone, will then go south for shows in Taichung Dec. 15-20, Tainan Dec. 28-Jan. 2 and Kaohsiung Jan. 11-16, 2007.
Various technologies, such as 64-bit dual core computing and global positioning system (GPS) applications -- as well as the latest mobile phones and mobile computer trends -- will be showcased in a Digital Life theme pavilion to give a glimpse of what the future digital home will be like.
While away from home, people will be able to monitor almost every piece of household electronic equipment with mobile phones and enjoy a home multimedia center featuring high-definition audio and video, organizers said in the preview of the fair.
A new type of "mobile computer," which is similiar to the combination of a Personal Data Assistant (PDA) and a laptop computer, is also expected to be one of the future "killer applications," organizers said.
IT Month was organized by the IT Month Event Committee, which consists of computer associations throughout Taiwan.
