Well we all knew it would happen sooner or later. The electronics that have made our lives easier, safer, richer, happier, excitier, have finally had enough of us not giving them the respect they deserve and are organizing a revolution. Samsung is preparing a first strike though and has organized the first US summit to make sure we’re prepared for the ensuing Armageddon. You can register for the conference here.
EDIT: Whoops. My bad. I didn’t read past the headline “Samsung Hosting Summit to Provide Broad Overview Of Electronics Revolution.” It’s actually just Samsung’s “first industry conference in the U.S., focusing on accelerating electronics innovation.” The target audience is industry executives, senior designers and marketing managers, so if you’re one of those, you might want to click on the jump to see the list of speakers.
