[Updated Apr. 13] — The Consumer Electronics Linux Forum (CELF) hosted a technical conference in Santa Clara, Calif. this week. LinuxDevices.com's roving reporter attended, and brought back slides and photos from an interesting demo session at the event (including the photo of “King Tux,” pictured here).

Overall, the CELF conference featured 40 speakers, and drew 104 pre-registered attendees and 14 on-site registrations, for a total of 158 attendees from the US, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Australia, Germany, Austria, and England.

The demo session consisted of vendor- or project-sponsored tables, which showcased various Linux-related software and hardware technologies of interest to consumer device developers, including both experimental technology and technology that has been deployed in successful products.

This year, LinuxDevices.com's selection for the CELF conference “Best of Show” award goes to the Panasonic P901iTV, a Linux-powered mobile phone that transforms into a terrestrial digital broadcast television when you twist the screen sideways.

Each demonstration in the demo session was summarized by a poster, the contents of which appear in the following article. Click here to learn about the demos and see a few photos from this year's CELF conference:
