Is H1N1 Good for Integrators?
image

10.29.2009 — Can there possibly be good news about the H1N1 outbreak and fears surrounding the virus?

Maybe.

According to the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), 26 percent of consumers are likely/very likely to shop LESS at crowded retailers due to H1N1 concerns.

And 15 percent of CE industry insiders cite H1N1 as one of their biggest concerns for the holiday season.

That's substantially less than the 62 percent of CE execs that fear low store traffic during Q4, but it ranks right up there with the percentage of insiders who are concerned about not enough inventory (18 percent) and too much inventory (14 percent).

I heard that Control4 is responsible for H1N1.

Wow.  Are custom integrators this desperate?
