Cisco Cius in NCIS: Los Angeles

• NCIS: Los Angeles is one program I llike to watch once in a while.  SageTV records it automatically  every week. I watch it whenever I've sometime to spare. 
• This week Cisco Digital Display systems signage in building J piqued my interest with a reference to NCIS: Los Angeles. As usual NCIS: Los Angeles catered to  in the building J showed that my favorite show was going to feature Cisco Cius. 
•  I'm a skeptic of the utility of Cius Tablet . I for one think Cisco would be better of creating a software for Telepresence End Point that runs in Android and iOS tablets.
• Well... I'm not the product manager!!!? 
• I had the same thought when Cisco acquired Pure Digital (flip). I know you would say it is hindsight 20/20!. 
• Product placement is a marketing technique used by many companies to promote their product to much wider audience. 
• New products get introduced to much wider audience.
• Movies and TV shows get another source of revenue
• NCIS: Los Angeles is too generous in product placements. 
• Recently one of the episodes prompted me to search for a sexy Chrysler car in the episode. In the end it wasn't Chrysler rather an expensive Aston Martin Rapide.
• Who would've thought Navy detectives would drive such an expensive car.
• Clever product placement.. huh.
• In the "Plab B" episode, NCIS analyst Nell uses Cius in the office and (surprisingly) in the moving car, in High Def!. Nice, does that demonstrate Cius's 3G capability!
• Remember "Super Size Me?". The same team has created another documentary that deals with the product placement in movies and TV shows, called "Greatest Movie Ever Sold" . I can't wait to watch it (in NetFlix - ofcourse).
