Description:
Tekkeon is a privately held company, headquartered in Tustin, California that develops mobile accessory products that are simple to use and useful. To capitalize
on the growing demand for mobile accessory devices, the company started by developing cell phone accessories and later switched to the development of accessories for the Apple iPod, Bluetooth Headsets, and Mobile Power products. One of its first products, the ezTalker Bluetooth headset has been vastly popular with consumers, and the company has started shipping the next generation of this device along with several other accessories it has rolled
out in the past year. The company positions itself as a developer of high-end devices and selectively targets large national distributors, smaller mid size regional electronic retail companies, and major online distribution partners, that have strong consumer demand for the high performance mobile accessory devices. Tekkeon’s line of products includes a rechargeable battery and portable dock, Bluetooth products, and a family of versatile mobile power product that power and charges virtually any portable electronic device.
