What do tile markers, “green” whiteout and iPhones have in common? Well, that’s what we wondered when we saw this new TVHat on display at the SKM Industries Inc stand at the 2010 CES show currenlty running in Los Vagas.
The TVHAT was launched at the CES by SKM Industries Inc (note the T-shirt in the pic - we’ll come back to it!)
Now SKM are serious developers of chemical products useful to businesses - like the previously mentioned “green” whiteout (correction fluid). So we were surprised to see them demo-ing a product so out-of-the-hat 
as it were, compared to their normal product lines!
As with most of the new products launched at CES, there is no mention of the TVHat on the SKM website as yet. But the concept is obvious from the pic - its a portable mini-movie room!
Looks pretty geeky, as well - so not sure this product is gonna add much to the company’s bottom line. After all, ya can’t even use celebs or beautiful women to promote it!!
Remember the t-shirt we mentioned? Take a close look at the logo on the guy sporting the TVHat.
Notice that part of the url is tvhat.com? And anyway that is the brand name - so its likely that at least some people are going to search for tvhat.com. And boy are they going to be surprised.
Not sure how much market research went into the name but currently there is an out-of-date anti-America, Arab site sitting at that url!! At first glance it presents itself as a music site. But the latest “music videos” are clearly political and religous figures from the Arab world. And when the Google translator is used, we find phrases like:
The promotion of hostility between America and Islam
Is it just us, or is this super weird?
What do ya’ll think?
