HP's CES Navigation Press Kit is Totally Awesome


HP's 2008 CES Navigation Kit

Instead of the worthless 64MB flash drive most people were handing out at CES this year, HP put together this totally well thought out, awesome GPS press kit / CES survival kit. Read on to see everything that was included, and why it was better than most press kits.

Energizer's Instant Cell Phone Charger lets you charge most cell phones using AA batteries.

Everything you need to survive the first day jet lag: $50 gift card, Emergen-C vitamin packets, No Jet-Lag pills, travel alarm clock, 2 x HP branded chap sticks, a USB flash drive, and HP branded pen.

HP iPAQ Passport

Introduction to the iPAQ 310 and info on HP at CES.

How could HP improve the kit for next year? How about some Purell hand sanitizer -- how have to shake hands with some shady characters at this show!

Here's to hoping more people put this kind of TLC into press kits next year!
