DAY THREE
Infocomm Media Business Exchange continues and more odd and quirky things are coming out of the woodwork.

Not to be left out of quirky squad, LG's two furry mascots - what looked like a briefcase and the other, a big furry eeerm, "@" sign - have hit the showfloor.

Blackberry's mascot aside (see below), it also got two leggy girls to "storm" the show and distribute brochures promoting its recently launched Blackberry Storm smartphone to visitors.

Blackberry ups the ante with a couple of leggy attractions.

And then there is Cboss.

Every hour, the media working room in Hall 5 will be hit by a barrage of sound.

Some curious journalists would step out, and return five minutes later looking puzzled, asking "what's Cboss?" of the other, equally nonplussed, reporters.

I still don't know what Cboss is or what it does, but apparently the "Cboss girls" hourly dance routine is a highlight for many visitors.

Nobody knows what Cboss is, but their dancers are cute.

DAY TWO
IT IS Day Two of the biggest tech show in Asia, the Infocomm Media Business Exchange, and my ankles and feet can attest to that.

Most visitors,  here just for one or two days, are still bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. It is the exhibitors and other journalists around me that have  bleary eyes.

But there are still quirky things to look forward to at this show – and, from a personal view, there are more of them this year than last year.

The best example must be Mabuhay Satellite, in hall 6, which brought in a model who looks very much like US president Barack Obama's long-lost twin.

He comes out to pose with his bevy of "Secret Service" girls, who look a little like Angelina Jolie.

I'm not sure what the purpose of having him there is, but he sure attracts crowds.

The furry mascots that look like Blackberry phones or e-mail message icons are also quite popular.

Lots of visitors, in particular the foreign visitors, stop to take photographs with them, as though they were children taking pictures with Mickey Mouse in Disneyland.

At least you are able to see all those small buttons...

And everytime this race car gets going, a crowd gathers to watch some lucky prospective customer try out the wheels.

Broom, broom. Singapore loves a fast car, especially if it's not going anywhere. PHOTO: Serene Luo

I think the man also had another, better reason to try out the car – he might just be looking for the nearest available seat to rest his poor feet.
