Ebeam me up!

Office365uk have just become an ebeam reseller and want to tell the world!

We were constantly having to take photos of whiteboard brainstorms, customer solutions and meeting ideas so that we didn't forget the information.... and then came Ebeam.

You just use the Whiteboard as usual and everything you draw, write, erase, etc is saved to a PC/laptop for later consumption.

This is a real alternitive to smart boards at a fraction of the cost. The following video says it all..

Get in touch for prices and information


Microsofts Virtual Push

Take a look at this.... I'm not sure that I even get it..... I think that Microsoft are telling people to virtualise, but I think I missed the message!

Perhaps this is designed for a US audience? Interestingly comments have been disabled for this video.... I wonder why.

The main charecter is Tad... who even has his own website..http://www.vm-limited.com/

And up it goes again!

Further to the news that Microsofts Cloud productivity service "Office 365" has had a considerable reduction in subscription cost, we can announce that the price is about to go up again (for UK customers)!

Effective July 1st, the cost of the Office 365 suites will increase by up to 21%. 

Microsoft have reported that "these changes are due to sustained currency differences in the EU/EFTA region between Euro and Non Euro currencies." 

These increases are not limited to the Cloud service and similar changes have been annonced accross all lines of Microsoft software products.
