Media Event for AsokaUSA PlugLink Debute Publicity Campaign

When: Friday, September 28, 2002, 1:00 p.m.-3:30 p.m..
Where: The AsokaUSA offices in South San Francisco
Who: Representatives of the media, Don Blaney of the Home Network Alliance,
demo house and office hosts, representatives from local electronic retailers,
AsokaUSA officers, engineers and employees.
How: Catered lunch, soft drinks, a drawing for a pair of AsokaUSA PlugLink
appliances, a chance to try a PlugLink network and more!
Background
Over the last three months AsokaUSA has sponsored a family and a small office
in the use of home plug in networking. This technology, which has not been widely
publicized, offers families and small offices a chance to network their computers
simply and at a modest cost.
Following the demo environment’s unqualified success, we will ask participants,
including children, to attend the party and speak to reporters. The host family
should be able to talk about using the system for educational, social and business
functions.
Our host office manager should be able to talk about using the system to access
files on a central computer and other business functions. We should document
what use was made of the network and ensure the users are ready to answer questions.
On-Site Demo
We will have a demo environment set up to allow media representatives to try
the system and at 1:30, starting from scratch, we will plug in the appliances
and set up the network to show just how easy it is to set up a network with
the AsokaUSA PlugLink system.
