SEATTLE (2/20/2008) -- Digital Delivery Group (DDG), the leading convergence and digital products-focused distribution consortium, announced today that February has started off well with a focused month of Nevo counter days across the country. In a collaborative marketing effort with Nevo control manufacturer, Universal Electronics Inc. (UEI), DDG designated February as "Nevo Month."

"Nevo Month" brings a Nevo product specialist to every DDG distributor location to give hands-on demos of the sleek, new NevoQ50 universal controller and the powerful and easy to use NevoStudio Pro programming software.  In addition to learning more about the NevoQ50 and NevoConnect NC-50 base station, DDG customers are entered to win free NevoQ50 controllers, obtain pre-programmed job templates and win other prizes all day at each location.  DDG is also including a Nevo box stuffer in every shipment to its customers this month to further generate awareness

"UEI is one of our strategic vendor partners," stated David Kaplan, Digital Delivery Group Executive Director, "and the NevoQ50 is really a home run for our customers in that it reliably uses Z-Wave™ technology and enables an installer to easily customize and program a simple interface for sophisticated systems."

A Nevo Counter Day was held February 14th at DDG's newest location, WAVE Electronics in Austin, Texas.  Less than two weeks after opening this 7,200 sq. ft warehouse, a large number of custom electronics installers stopped in to the new facility to meet with the Nevo product specialist, and many left with a new NevoQ50 in hand.

"DDG has been an excellent launch partner for the new Nevo line," says Ami Wright, Universal Electronics Inc. National Sales Manager.  "I personally am attending many of the Nevo Month counter days and am impressed with the exceptional knowledge and support of the DDG staff."
