According to The NPD Group, in 2012 Turtle Beach led all first and third party manufacturers on sales, in units and dollars, of gaming headsets.

Mobile Headset Sales Poised for Growth as More Gamers Turn to Mobile Gaming
Gaming is both a driver and a beneficiary of the huge growth in the mobile device market. After checking email, gaming represents the second most frequent use of a tablet**, and ranks ahead of making phone calls, emails and texting on smartphones. Mobile device unit sales now exceed PC sales, and for the first time in 2012 broadband use on mobile devices exceeds use on PCs***.

As the displays, processing power and battery life of mobile devices has improved; mobile video games have increased in quality and complexity. As the excellence of games and gameplay continues to improve on mobile devices, more consumers will seek a superior audio experience to compliment the raised mobile standard.

Only Turtle Beach has a full line of mobile gaming headsets to fill that need, delivering excellent audio quality at all price points. With an emphasis on portability - headsets that are designed to work across consoles, PCs and mobile devices - Turtle Beach has a distinct advantage with gaming enthusiasts who are likely to play games on multiple platforms. And within the category, only Turtle Beach is delivering a robust retail point-of-sale presence, with superior product packaging and in-store kiosks. As mobile gaming accessories emerge as a category, no gaming headset company is positioned as well as Turtle Beach to benefit and support the expanding market.

IOGEAR Debuts Two New Wireless PC-to-TV Products for Enhanced TV Connectivity

New Wireless AV Products Satisfy Consumer Demand for Smartphone to TV; Laptop to TV Experiences

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- IOGEAR continues its connectivity industry leadership by unveiling today two wireless products to bridge consumers' favorite HD content across devices for high quality viewing experiences. The IOGEAR Wireless Mobile and WiDi to HDTV is one of the first devices to enable wireless streaming from either the smartphone or laptop to the TV. In addition, the latest release of the Wireless 1080p Computer to HD Display Kit features new compatibility with Apple laptops and a smaller receiver with a horizontal profile for easier integration into entertainment systems. Both products will be demonstrated at the annual International CES (Central Hall, Booth #9029).

IOGEAR was the first to bring to market wireless streaming from a laptop or PC to a TV with the introduction of the Wireless Audio/Video Kit in 2008.  The Wireless Mobile and WiDi to HDTV and Wireless 1080p Computer to HD Display Kit builds on that innovative leadership, allowing individuals and families to move between devices and share content.

"As more consumers move toward mobile devices and multiple screens, IOGEAR's new products bring seamless integration and flexibility across products," said IOGEAR CEO Jack Wang. "IOGEAR's leadership and innovation help create personalized, connected environments that reach beyond the traditional television screen and enhance the sharing experience."

Wireless Mobile and WiDi to HDTV
The Wireless Mobile and WiDi to HDTV (GWAVR; MSRP $79.95) streams videos, photos, music and web content from a smartphone, tablet or laptop to an HDTV up to 30 feet away. Supporting both Intel(®) Wireless Display (WiDi) and Miracast, the product works with all the latest devices.  Its additional advantage is that it also works with both iOS and Android smartphones and tablets. Users can wirelessly share photos or videos from smartphones onto the larger screen of an HDTV without compromising quality or ease of connectivity.

Additionally, select online content including Vimeo, Facebook, Picasa and YouTube is available to stream to the TV by downloading the free iMediaShare app to the smartphone or tablet. Smartphones capabilities are enhanced, using less battery power as content is played and the phone is used like a remote control.

The Wireless Mobile and WiDi to HDTV will be available online at http://www.iogear.com and through major distribution channels in spring 2013.

Wireless 1080p Computer to HD Display Kit
The Wireless 1080p Computer to HD Display Kit (GUWAVKIT4; MSRP $149.95) streams high definition video from a PC or Apple laptop to an HDTV up to 30 feet away. Building on previous product releases, the fourth generation IOGEAR product offers easy-to-use, reliable Apple compatibility and supports Microsoft's Windows 8. The smaller, horizontal profile of the wireless receiver will fit into almost any home entertainment space and features one HDMI and one VGA output for video support.

The Wireless 1080p Computer to HD Display Kit will be available online at http://www.iogear.com and through major distribution channels in late February 2013.

Tiny New TP-LINK "Nano" Powerline Adapters Offer Impressive Speeds

New AV200/AV500 Powerline Starter Kits offer 500Mbps data transfer rates in miniature shells

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- TP-LINK, a global provider of networking products, today announced its new AV200 and AV500 Nano Powerline Adapter Starter Kits. Using the latest AV Homeplug technology, TP-LINK has packed a powerful device that would once cover an entire wall socket into a product that can easily fit in the palm of the average hand.

(Photo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130108/NY37664)

What's more, despite being significantly smaller than legacy Powerline products, the devices have not sacrificed functionality to do so. With 200 or 500Mbps speeds (depending on the model) able to be carried over the household power circuit up to 300 meters when paired with their twin adapters to be included in the starter kits, users will have enough bandwidth to power several bandwidth intensive or latency-sensitive tasks at the same time.

Transferring data over the household power circuit also ensures that connections are incredibly robust, perfect for a home media center with multiple devices transferring data such as HD or even 3D video, music and online games simultaneously. At the same time, the devices are incredibly easy to deploy, allowing even novice users to get their networks up in running in a flash, simply plug in and play. This also eliminates the need for time-consuming and expensive renovations previously required for a whole-home wired Ethernet network.

The TL-PA2010 and TL-PA4010will be shown at CES from January 8-11, 2013 Las Vegas Convention Center South Hall 4-Upper Level, Booth 36212

Product Availability: January 2013

Transferring data over existing in-home electrical wiring also ensures that connections are perfect for home media centers with multiple devices transferring data such as HD or even 3D video, music and online games simultaneously. Products available in January 2013.

11ac and Media Adapters Upgrade PCs and Laptops, Make Wired Devices Wireless

For users who need an easy upgrade or want to convert Ethernet-powered devices into wireless, TP-LINK will debut several solutions, which ensure high-quality connections for bandwidth-intensive applications such as HD video streaming, online gaming and connecting wirelessly with Internet-enabled TVs, Set-top boxes, or game consoles.

Both devices use the latest in Hy-Fi technology, automatically cloning wireless security profiles, to provide seamless home or office-wide roaming coverage. Estimated product availability is Q2 013.

Performance Meets Design With "Pebble" 3G Router and "Halo" Router

TP-LINK will also show a pair of routers that combine form with function. Both were International CES Innovations 2013 Design and Engineering Awards Honorees. 

TP-LINK's MR5350 Pebble is a portable 3G router. It supports WCDMA HSPA+ up to 21Mbps with 3G SIM card inserted; has a long-life 2000mAh battery with average 6-hour run time, and features 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi in a very small body resembling a pebble. It also features a micro SD card slot to accommodate up to 32GB of flash memory and micro USB port, which can be used with an external power adapter or USB port to charge the device. Estimated product availability is Q1 2013.

The TP-LINK Halo TL-WR706N shrinks the size of a traditional wireless router to a tiny, cylindrical wall-socket mounted device. With its 802.11n wireless card that supports speeds of up to 150Mbps, internal antenna, and built-in power adapter, the Halo excels in both form and function. Estimated product availability is Q2 2013.

'Global Cyber Security Market to be Worth $68.34bn in 2013' Says Visiongain Report

LONDON, January 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

    Visiongain [http://www.visiongain.com/Content/3/About-Us ]'s analysis indicates that
the global cyber security market is set to be worth $68.34bn in 2013, as exceedingly
high-demand continues for information security systems across governments, global
militaries, and the private sector.

    The visiongain author of the Global Cyber Security Market 2013-2023 report
[http://www.visiongain.com/Report/951/Global-Cyber-Security-Market-2013-2023 ] comments
that: 'Cyber security is one of the strongest growth markets in the defence & security
industry [http://www.visiongain.com/Sector/9/Defence ] at present. It is important to
emphasise that, uniquely, the playing field is currently very level internationally (in
terms of capability); and this is almost certain to provide a major stimulus to spending
in years to come, as threats evolve and militaries place increased emphasis on modernised,
network-centric warfare. Moreover, the cyber security market transcends traditional
defence expenditure: the private sector remains very insecure in regard to the cyber
threat and the increase importance of safeguarding intellectual property is certain to
ensure that higher spending is necessary across all areas of industry and commerce.
Lastly, the threat to national infrastructure cannot be discounted as a major area of
spending. Taken altogether, cyber security represents a major growth market which will
reward both vendors and purchasers.'

    The Global Cyber Security Market 2013-2023 report has 348 pages and contains 222
tables, charts and graphs that illustrate and clarify trends and market projections within
the cyber security market. Visiongain provides a range of forecasts for the period
2013-2023, as well as for 4 market sectors (government, military, critical infrastructure,
and private sector) of the cyber security market. In addition, the 13 leading national
cyber security systems markets are forecast and analysed by visiongain over the period
2013-2023 as well as 'Rest of the World' market. Furthermore, there are seven submarkets:
network security, security operations, data security, identity and access, endpoint
security, application security, and cloud security. The report also provides profiles of
17 leading companies operating within the market, including 6 interviews with Lockheed
Martin Corporation, IBM Corporation, QinetiQ, Tempest Security Intelligence, Lacoon Mobile
Security and ISC8 Inc.

    The Global Cyber Security Market 2013-2023 report will be of impressive value to
current, and future, investors into the cyber security industry, as well as to companies
and research centres who wish to broaden their knowledge of the cyber security market. The
report includes an extended (and critical) focus on national cyber security policies, and
the comparison with other states is likely to be of interest to government agencies.

"Marvell's G.hn silicon unifies the home wireline network for distributing more content to more screens in more rooms throughout the home.

Trend Spotting: RELLECIGA Leads the 2013 Spring & Summer Lace Bikini Fashion

GUNAGZHOU, China, Jan. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- To the beach, ladies! As 2013 begins, it's time to update your closet for the coming summer, and there's no easier way to inject some new elements into your bikinis than throwing on a lace trend. Beach Bunny, Victoria's Secret, Doll, Ami and RELLECIGA cannot wait to launch new series of lace swimwear this season. Lace is the next trend. There is no doubt about it, ladies!

Lace is a material that can be found at all kinds of stores and in all kinds of brands - every price point has lace. Beach Bunny, Victoria's Secret, DOLL and RELLECIGA are always one step ahead of fashion trends with incredibly stylish designs. That's the very reason people are so in love with their bikinis, tankinis and one-pieces. Every spring and summer people are desperate to get one swimsuit from them. This year, they will certainly not miss the up-to-date lace fashions, especially the lace bikinis from RELLECIGA, which are gorgeous, stylish and NOT expensive.

RELLECIGA cherishes the inspiration designers bring out and sharing them with you. For the coming 2013 summer bikini season, RELLECIGA is taking sexy lace bikinis really seriously. So, get the lace bikini you've always wanted with RELLECIGA; and remember, lace is always better on RELLECIGA bikinis.

Lace is a complicated fabric to wear. One must ensure that other elements fit well, as lace pulls across the body when an item is too tight. This material is beautiful and rich, particularly in the Neon/Coral colors that RELLECIGA comes in, or in "jewel" tones. However, during hot months, a classic lace shift dress or lace camisole might be particularly flattering with summer skin and highlights. When by the pool, a bikini with some lace overlay or a sweet eyelet lace detail is the perfect mix of cute, sexy and fun.

As we mentioned above, lace, as an element to bikinis, is a material that can be found at all kinds of stores and in all kinds of brands. A recent lace sighting has been the lace collection of RELLECIGA. They are young, cut and extremely sexy. The colors are also admirable. This lace look might be perfect for those who enjoy open swimming environments, like swimming pools or the beach.

The real good of a piece of RELLECIGA Lace Bikini, which you will find, is that it should show, first, that the designer of it had a pretty fancy idea; next, that the maker of it had fine fingers; lastly, that the wearer of it has worthiness or dignity enough to obtain what is difficult to obtain, and common sense enough not to wear it on all occasions. To the beaches, ladies!

Whatever improves the lace and makes it more beautiful, is right. RELLECIGA has done it right! In March, all people around the world will see these gorgeous bikini pieces from RELLECIGA. Then here comes the final question: Is the lace bikini expensive? No Way! Don't bother yourself with the "price" thing any longer, because RELLECIGA is about to amuse you with surprises, both in price and style!

The reason why girls can buy such excellent RELLECIGA bikinis at sunny little prices is because RELLECIGA is one of the largest sexy bikini manufacturers in the Asia region. The RELLECIGA factory is located in China and has 300+ employees. RELLECIGA has what you are looking for, and more. With a total investment of USD$5,000, 000, RELLECIGA supplies all types of sexy bikinis and has an annual output of over 1, 500, 000 pieces. RELLECIGA mainly sells products to US, Europe, Australia, Japan, South America, South Africa, East South Asia, Korea and Taiwan.

RELLECIGA is excited to announce the launch of its newest bikini collection in March, 2013. Featuring tons of new prints, colors, and, most importantly, lace. It's going to be one of the best!

Lexus and Toyota First In Industry To Launch Integrated HD Radio(TM) Technology For Audio Entertainment and Traffic & Data Delivery

HD Radio Technology and Clear Channel's Total Traffic Network to provide subscription-free real-time traffic and weather information via digital FM broadcasting for Lexus and Toyota owners

COLUMBIA, Md., Jan. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- iBiquity Digital Corporation, the developer of digital HD Radio Technology for AM and FM audio and data broadcasting, announced today that Lexus and Toyota will be the first automotive brands to launch integrated audio and real-time traffic services using Clear Channel's Total Traffic Network (TTN), a groundbreaking programming and technology service that delivers real-time local traffic flow and incident information, and HD Radio Technology. The all-new Lexus IS, which will debut next week at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, will be the first Lexus vehicle using the new HD Radio service when it arrives in dealerships this summer; Toyota vehicles with the service will launch later this year.

Lexus and Toyota will launch two systems integrating HD Radio digital audio entertainment and TTN's real-time traffic and weather information.

For vehicles with navigation systems, Lexus and Toyota will provide a digital audio and navigation system driven by the first of its kind hybrid technology capable of receiving digital traffic and weather information from both HD Radio stations and the cell phone network, using the driver's smartphone connected with the Lexus Enform and Toyota Entune systems.

For vehicles without navigation, Lexus and Toyota will offer a premium display audio system complete with free traffic maps and weather information, all delivered by HD Radio stations across the country. 

Why use the HD Radio system for traffic and weather?
The digital broadcast system is easy to use and extremely efficient, it is faster and able to broadcast, receive and display far more information and data than other systems.  For consumers, it is a subscription-free traffic and weather information service.  There are no data plans or monthly subscriptions to worry about.

Jeff Jury, Chief Operating Officer of iBiquity Digital said, "Toyota's new system using HD Radio broadcasts will revolutionize the way that traffic and weather data is delivered into the vehicle.  A majority of automakers have now integrated HD Radio audio features, and Toyota and Lexus are leading the industry by integrating digital traffic and weather features."

"At Lexus and Toyota we strive for partnerships that bring the most advanced connected vehicle technologies to our customers at a great value," said Sandy Lobenstein, Corporate Manager, Product Planning at Toyota Motor Sales.  "As a result of our partnership with iBiquity, our owners will be the first in the industry to have access to subscription-free real-time traffic and weather data on multimedia systems across our vehicle lineup."

TTN has built a nationwide network using its own radio stations and the HD Radio system to broadcast real-time traffic and data information.  TTN has been selected by Lexus and Toyota to provide the real-time digital traffic and weather information driving the integrated HD Radio system.

HD Radio Technology is the digital evolution of AM and FM radio and delivers significant benefits for Lexus and Toyota drivers: crystal-clear sound quality; additional digital only local FM channels known as HD2/HD3 Channels; PSD - Program Service Data, which displays song title and artist name on the radio screen; iTunes Tagging allows listeners to store song information with the touch of a button for later purchase and download through iTunes; Artist Experience which enables images that match the audio content to be displayed on the radio screen; and now, subscription-free traffic and data information sent directly to a vehicle's radio or navigation system.  HD Radio Technology is subscription free broadcast radio.

HD Radio Technology is available nationwide, with more than 2,150 digital stations on-air, and over 1,400 HD2/HD3 digital only channels that broadcast fresh new content that can only be heard with an HD Radio receiver. A sampling of the formats on these extra channels, which vary in different markets around the country, include Dance/Electronica, Bluegrass Country, Comedy, Local Music, Chill/Coffee Shop Music, South Asian, Talk, News, and Sports, to name just a few.

29 automakers have now publicly announced plans to incorporate HD Radio Technology in 150+ models by year-end with more than 70 models featuring HD Radio receivers as standard equipment. 

HD Radio Technology will debut in the Lexus and Toyota line-up starting in the summer of 2013.  Keep watching for more information at http://www.toyota.com, http://www.lexus.com and http://www.hdradio.com.

IOGEAR Introduces Industry's First Wireless Streaming Matrix

Technology Leadership Provides New Seamless HDTV Viewing Options

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --IOGEAR introduced the Wireless 5x2 HD Matrix at the annual International CES today, showcasing the industry's first product capable of sending separate full, uncompressed HD 1080p content to two HD displays or projectors from up to five sources (digital and analog) and switching among the various sources independently. The Wireless 5x2 HD Matrix (GWHDMS52; $399.95) sets new benchmarks in the audio visual industry andwill be demonstrated at CES (Central Hall, Booth #9029).

The Wireless 5x2 HD Matrix allows individuals and families to create the custom viewing experiences that fit their needs.  A home user can keep the cable box, Blu-ray player, game console or media server in one room with a HDTV accessing content and send separate content wirelessly to another HDTV in any room up to 100 feet away. This means parents can watch their weekly TV dramas, while the kids enjoy their favorite Blu-ray movies in another room. The wireless connectivity does not require a line of sight, so home theater devices can be stored neatly away in one location, and wirelessly send content though walls to another room within the home.  The applications are nearly limitless, such as setting up TVs in a bedroom, kitchen, den, patio or game rooms.

Beyond the home, the Wireless 5x2 HD Matrix provides reliable, high quality video for work environments. Business users will now be able to wirelessly stream the same presentation to dual displays or projectors in a conference room. Two conference rooms can be equipped to easily access different content from shared devices. For companies with lobbies, video commercials or ads can be streamed there while a training video is played simultaneously in a conference room. With the Wireless 5x2 HD Matrix, businesses can eliminate the need for a second Blu-ray, cable box, game console or VCR and help streamline costs and space for equipment.

"Consumers increasingly demand more connectivity among their home and business devices, and IOGEAR's new Wireless 5x2 HD Matrix leads the industry in offering flexible content choices," said IOGEAR CEO Jack Wang. "The Wireless 5x2 HD Matrix is a leap forward and further testament to IOGEAR's continuing momentum and innovation."

The Wireless 5x2 HD Matrix will be available online at http://www.iogear.com and through major distribution channels in spring 2013.
