Self-Service Kiosk Industry Update
March 22, 2005

Coming up for the industry in April is the KioskCom.com 2005 Show in Las Vegas April 18-20. If you would like a guest pass just sign up with KIS. Signing up also makes you eligible for a Dell DJ that will be given away at the show.

Our partnership with FedEx will be highlighted at the show. Pat Johnson (IT Manager, FedEx) will be discussing the details of this highly successful and complex project. This seminar is something we would encourage all of you to attend. Pat will share some very specific, "real life" principles of success that will benefit any self-service kiosk initiative.
