VoIP Supply Road Trip – 2012 Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference
For the next couple days Toronto Canada is going to be the center of the Microsoft world as it hosts the 2012 Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference; four days of all things Microsoft in the shadow of the CN Tower and the Hockey Hall of Fame.
VoIP Supply will be spending all four days in the Sangoma booth (#256) to help promote the Sangoma Lync Express all-in-one appliance and walking the expo floor to see what’s new in the Microsoft and Microsoft Lync world.
Rather than trying to copy the Louvre scene from Bande à Part and running through the conference, I thought I would slow down and take it piece by piece.
Today, Day 1, I took a look at the Lync headsets manufacturers booths.
Sennheiser (Booth #551)
Sennheiser started WPC with a press release announcing two new USB headsets for Lync, the Sennheiser SC 30 USB ML and the Sennheiser SC 60 USB ML.
Each of the headsets has been optimized for Lync and includes inline controls. These two new headsets expand on the family of wired and wireless headsets from Sennheiser.
Jabra (Booth #1437)
The two key products for Jabra at WPC are the long awaited Jabra UC 750 and the Jabra Supreme UC. The Jabra UC 750 is the newest and highest end of their UC USB headsets.
The Jabra Supreme UC is a Bluetooth headset that is targeted at the mobile work with the ability to be paired with a cell phone and a laptop using the included USB dongle.
Plantronics (Booth #344)
One of the most visual and quite possibly popular swag items that have been handed out by any of the exhibitors has been the Plantronics fedoras.
Besides the fedoras Plantronics had on display their selection of wired and wireless Lync headsets.
Unrelated to headsets but one of my favorite sites from day one at WPC was the Tim Hortons cart in the Canadian regional lounge.
Next Up for Day 2
On Day 2 I’ll be scoping out Lync Phones.
