Walking away with the coveted Innovations 2008 Design and Engineering Award, Ectaco demonstrated once again how their proven combination of technical know-how, superior design, and customer-centered approach trumped the competition when it came to being the 'must-have' item of the show.
Containing just about everything the smart business or leisure traveler needs to make visiting foreign destination an easily navigated experience, the 2-way hands-free travel companion was attracting people in crowds to see what all the fuss was about.

Ectaco Inc. president and CEO David Lubinitsky was proud of all the attention the device was getting and said, "We knew we had a winner even when we were still in the planning stages, but to see the device being used as it was intended and bringing smiles of wonder to people's faces is far more enjoyable than we ever imagined. People from all walks of life and different countries who would never have been able to communicate before now have a chance to get to know one another. We even had a couple use the iTRAVL to arrange a date and two businessmen used the iTRAVL to close a deal! Now that's progress!"
