Remotemedia‘s signagelive® product has been selected by Samsung as a ‘strategic partner’ which is great news for the former and a nice admission from the latter that their own software (MagicNet) probably loses them more deals than it wins them!

Many of you were very interested in our rumour last week that Samsung were about to make a major announcement this week. We reckon it will be today but probably not by one o’ clock today when our Daily Newsletter is programmed to go out 🙁 We can say that the partnership is with a […]
