11th VENUS in Berlin continues to grow
Berlin, 09.10.2007
Its surely no surprise any more when the VENUS announces additional improvements but theres no harm in mentioning them anyway. The declared goal of acquiring at least 400 exhibitors at the 11th VENUS is almost achieved and a gratifying number of new dealers from all over the world has already registered with us.
With more than 150 new exhibitors, this years VENUS can record the highest growth in the events history. So its worth taking a closer look at these "newcomers" and the interesting products and services theyll be bringing with them. One thing to be mentioned up front however is that the origin of these new exhibitors – 28 countries in all – once again clearly affirms the VENUS in Berlin as an international trade fair. And perhaps this is a sign that the merging of markets in the future should be awarded more attention by the industry and trade. No less interesting is the variety of products and services accompanying this international increase in exhibitors and enriching the VENUS in many aspects. Trade can in any case look forward to the fact that its "shelf-warmers" are to face some serious competition. Whether toys, joke items, cosmetics, bondage products, useful items or lingerie – trade buyers can choose from new famous brands and products from all over the world. And rights dealers will also have the opportunity to secure new licences.
The most successful growth however is recorded by the VENUS WEB AREA. The WEB AREA and the idea to merge online and offline business have given rise to much discussion. This shows however that both online and offline users are looking for new platforms and new distribution channels and that the industry regards the VENUS in Berlin as a competent business platform.
Driven by this quest, the organisers surfed somewhat deeper into the requirements of online users. Like last year, the WEB AREA offers lounge areas which can be booked including walls, furniture, carpet, power connection, W-Lan and beverages. The bar remains in place for casual meetings. Following several requests, a B2C area has also been set up for those exhibitors looking for contact to the many consumers. The WEB AREA now also offers an area for presentations and discussions. From Thursday to Saturday, presentations will be held on two issues a day.
The WEB AREA exhibitor index lists key global players in the online sector with the result that the organisers have really done their homework this year.
The area of erotic art is also increasingly discovering the VENUS as an exhibition area. Under the motto of "Big ist einfach beautyfull", the self-acclaimed lover of rotund figures and artist René von Boch (Villeroy & Boch) from Losheim am See will be exhibiting his "fat ass drawings". "Even as a child, I was fascinated by curves – huge curves. The black breeding bull in the meadow, the quince on the tree, the mare in the stable or back then the soft oversized inflatable pink ball in the sandbox with its two gorgeously long pink nipples for grasping. But apart from all of that, I was most fascinated by the curves provided by the swaying bottoms of well-proportioned women. These characteristics have remained until today and asserted themselves in my sketches ...", is how René von Boch interprets his drawings.

Spartacus launches flirty Mini Whips in four leather colours
Portland, 26.09.2007
Spartacus Enterprises has introduced four flirty new Mini Whips. The whips are ten inches long and feature luxurious leather straps.
The fun, miniature whips are aimed at whip play beginners, as well as any customer looking for a conveniently low price point in a quality whip.
Stephen Bergquist explained the reasoning behind making a smaller whip from a manufacturing standpoint. He says, "We were thinking, how can we offer a high-quality leather whip with an affordable price point? The answer was to cut material costs by making a smaller whip! That way, we maintain our quality standard while offering a more affordable product." The whips´ wholesale price is $8.33. Each Mini Whip retails for just $16.75 MSRP.
Aside from price and quality, the other benefit of the cute mini-whips is the 10" size itself. These whips are perfect for customers whose tastes run toward the vanilla but who want to dabble in more adventurous sex.
All four Spartacus mini-whips are packaged to match existing Spartacus lines. The purple mini-whip is part of the new Crave™ line of luxury violet leather. The other three whips are packaged to match the Blackline, Pinkline and Redline, respectively. Merchants who already carry products in these luxury leather lines will find that these Mini Whips make an excellent add-on sale and colour complement to the existent Spartacus lines.
About Spartacus Enterprises
Since 1987, Spartacus Enterprises of Portland, Oregon has supplied adults with exceptional fetish and BDSM products manufactured from leather, metal, rubber and more. Spartacus is a recognised name throughout the world for having an extensive selection of hand-crafted quality goods.

Bringing style and class to personal massagers
Los Angeles, 07.10.2007
Big Teaze Toys introduces the B3™ Collection
Big Teaze Toys, the company that created a buzz heard throughout the world with its I Rub My Duckie® Personal Waterproof Massagers, has gone upscale with the launch of its luxury collection of B3™ vibrators.
The success of the I Rub My Duckie® range – an innovative line of discreet vibrators – has resulted in Big Teaze Toys products being placed into upscale boutiques such as Rykiel Woman, Henri Bendel and Sephora.
Encouraged by the consistently positive response to the I Rub My Duckie® range, Big Teaze Toys President and Chief Designer, Tony Levine, felt the time had come to expand Big Teaze Toys product line into the luxury adult lifestyle market. With the introduction of adult products from other manufacturers being carried in very non-adult stores such as Selfridges Oxford Street in London, Quartier 206 in Berlin and Los Angeles Studio at Fred Segal; Levine spurred his desire to bring what would ultimately become the B3™ Collection to the public.
In the beautiful and luxurious B3™ Collection, form meets function with clean, sleek and contemporary lines that are crafted from phthalate-free plastics, hygienic stainless steel and non-porous silicone.
Levines B3™ Collection brings the understated elegance and high quality of luxury lifestyle products to the mainstream consumer at an affordable price.
"The B3™ Collection reflects the growing acceptance of sex by society as a whole", claims Levine. "There are sex toys in exclusive boutiques going for thousands of dollars to massagers going for less than $100 in the big box stores. Our first line was a smash hit and included ducks, fish and worms that are at home in the tub and appealed to a consumers playful side. The B3™ pieces are works of art that are at home in the boudoir and appeal to a consumers refined tastes. Theyre sophisticated playthings for the decadent."
The B3™ Collection includes The B3™ Onye, a glossy cylindrical contoured vibrator, lightly textured with a non-slip grip, ergonomically designed to reduce hand fatigue. The Onye features eight modes of vibration, three speeds, from mild to intense; and five different patterns of pulsation.
The B3™ Tuyo is a globe-shaped massager designed to roll smoothly across the body to soothe and excite the senses. Like the Onye, the Tuyo is designed to maximise pleasure and reduce strain from use. With eight modes of vibration, three speeds and five pulsation settings, the Tuyo is fun for individual play or partner play.
Discreet, splash-proof and compact in size, the B3™ Collection is an ideal travel accessory that is beautifully packaged and presented in a satin-lined case. Both the Onye and Tuyo are available in elegant black or an ultra-feminine white/pink combination.
The B3™ Collection will be available internationally from November 2007.

HS Systeme permits live machine sex via the Internet
Frankenthal, 04.10.2007
HS Systeme permits live machine sex via the Internet during which the user can control/pamper the model directly with the dildo machine.
Since the end of the 1990s, the southern German company HS Systeme has been developing and producing sex machines in the "Magic Motion" range. With its new "MMXLive" project, the company is now braving the step into cam portal business, which isnt anything earth-shattering in itself. The essential difference to other providers of such portals is however the latest technical development by HS Systeme, whereby users take control of the sex machines via the Internet in the MMXLive portal and can carry out various functions by remote control.
Traditionally, sex machines represent one of the particular attractions of practically every major erotic fair. Meanwhile there are numerous providers in Germany, too but very few manufacturers. One of these is HS Systeme from Frankenthal. At the VENUS 2001, HS Systeme presented the first model in the Magic Motion range; meanwhile nine different models are on offer (both in 220 V and in 110 V). The "Magic Motion" is available in various designs, starting with the fitted version through several case versions to luxurious stool, horizontal and vertical versions made of artificial leather. The machines have an output of up to 350 thrusts a minute and are controlled smoothly by a manual control. Thanks to the microprocessor-controlled random generator in the manual control unit also developed by HS Systeme, users are offered various programmes and functions with continually changing thrust speeds and intervals.
Magic Motion machines have since featured on various TV programmes, in press reports and video/DVD productions. In the form of the Magic Motion "Perfect", a thrust and vibration unit was launched in time for the VENUS in 2006 which HS Systeme and numerous customers and dealers in Germany and abroad regard as the most powerful and modern device of its kind currently available on the market. Even the American guests were mightily impressed. HS Systeme is presenting three new models at the VENUS 2007.
Detailed information on the various models, video clips and much more are available on the Web site at www.dildomaschine.de.
But the most revolutionary project by HS Systeme is undoubtedly "MMXLive" with which the company finally wishes to get actively involved in the cam portal business. Via cam portal, "MMXLive" enables users to bring a hot girl of their choice to orgasm from anywhere in the world using a remote-controlled sex machine. It goes without saying that the dildo and thrust frequency in this type of "cybersex" can be determined individually by the user at any time. Also integrated in the MMXLive portal is the "User steuert User" (user controls user) function (private persons can pamper each other through the Internet using various sex items, starting with vibrators through to sex machines). Imagine two partners forced to be apart for a longer period of time but still wishing to indulge each other. No problem with MMXLive and the "User steuert User" function. Furthermore, the "Modell steuert User" (model controls user) function (whereby users can book a model and have themselves pampered by remote control with a variety of sex items), a video chat, photo shoots by the user (the user can control and zoom the cams in the portal via the Internet and download images directly onto his PC), a sex shop, a video portal, a contact exchange and much more will also be offered. The team already has ideas for additional functions. In time for the VENUS 2007, fans of this somewhat alternative type of cybersex will be able to use the technologies offered by HS Systeme in order to personally bring girls to ecstasy while following the action live. More information on the MMXLive live cam portal is already available online at www.mmxlive.com.
