The event succeeded in jumpstarting the holiday season by bringing together TESSCO retailers, enterprise customers, and industry experts to showcase the latest mobile device accessories for today’s mobile devices, and to then vote on those they deemed most innovative. These innovations took top honors:
Kingston® Technology Wi-Drive pocket-sized portable storage and file sharing solution for Apple devices. Featuring integrated Wi-Fi and four hours of battery, the Wi-Drive lets you wirelessly access 16 GB or 32 GB of space from your device, and the content can be shared with two other people. "Kingston is honored to receive the Innovation Award from TESSCO," said Kingston Vice President, Global Strategic Business Development, Darwin Chen. "Wi-Drive extends the storage capacity of Apple and soon-to-be Android devices by wirelessly streaming music, photos, videos and documents. Together with TESSCO, we can share this innovative device with everyone."

"mophie is extremely thrilled with the TESSCO Innovation Award we received," said mophie Director of Sales, North America, Victor Henley. "I think attendees saw and voted on what many of our strategic partners have already seen for some time. Having a beautiful protective case that also doubles the battery life of the iPhone, with very attractive ASPs and margins, is a win-win for the consumer and retail partner. We look forward to an exciting Q4 with TESSCO, especially after the announcement of the Apple iPhone 4S, with which the Juice Pack is compatible with versions sold through AT&T, Verizon, and now Sprint."
