Wireless System Sniffs out Freight Locations, Keeps Exhibitors Informed, and Prints Receipts Right at the Booth

Overview Companies spend thousands of dollars to exhibit at trade shows. The last thing the exhibition company wants to see is an exhibitor standing in the middle of an empty space on the convention floor, hours before opening, shouting "Where is my *&$%@# booth? Thanks to a new program offered by a leading exposition firm, booth-less exhibitors can wail their questions to a Show Ambassador on the exhibition floor, instead of marching over to the service desk for the fortieth time. That roving Ambassador will use a portable terminal to wirelessly inquire about the booth shipment and provide information in real time about the booth's scheduled arrival and installation.
