Event Review
Retail Business Technology Show, Australia
This was the third year that Argox has participated in the three-day Retail Business Technology Show, which was held in Melbourne, Australia from September 19~21. This year Argox was the only AIDC provider from Taiwan to participate in this show. Attendance was excellent with about 25 thousand show-goers checking out the exhibition. Argox was glad to have this opportunity to introduce our brand and products to many end-users, who were the majority of attendees.

Argox displayed its full line of products and introduced the soon-to-be-available PT-80 Win/CE portable data terminal, as well as the AS-8510 bluetooth scanner. Both products received many inquiries. In addition to our booth, there were three of our distributors' booths out of 100+ exhibitors that were also displaying the Argox logo. While Argox is a newcomer to this market, we are already making a good impression.

Special Thanks
Special Thanks to DCSA
Argox would like to give a special thanks to Data Capture Systems Australia (DCSA) for providing our team with so much help at the Retail Business Technology Show. Recent regulations in Australia require that all electronics used at the show must have a special power plug. DCSA went out of their way to make sure that we had all of the necessary equipment including power cords and extension cords when our team arrived. We also wish to thank DCSA for helping us bring in goods for the show, and with the set-up and take-down of our booth. Our heartfelt thanks to DCSA!
Road Show
Australia
In addition to exhibiting at the Retail Business Technology Show, the Argox team also visited our partners for technical training and information sharing. Our team of five included a marketing manager, a data terminal product manager, two terminal engineers, and a printer engineer. This was our second year to conduct training sessions in Australia. Last year our focus was printers, and this year it was portable data terminals. Our training consisted of product introductions for the PT-10, PT-12, and our new PT-80, where we discussed product exteriors, mechanisms, and software. We were fortunate to receive many valuable suggestions from our partners on how to improve our terminals. This type of information exchange and learning from our partners is the best way to develop successful products.
