Just because you’re a small business owner doesn’t mean you have to skimp on state-of-the art and high tech products that could benefit your business. From the looks of the exhibits from the recent 2010 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), your small business can enjoy new technology for a reasonable price. Here’s a brief look at a few new products from CES that might interest you:
Safe Backup with IoSafe Solo SSD
Backing up your electronic files and data is of major importance. But what would happen to your data if your external backup storage suffered damage from a major disaster?
The new IoSafe Solo SSD is a solid-state hard drive that you can use to safely backup your important data. According to IoSafe, it can withstand up to 5,000 lbs of pressure, temperatures up to 1550 degrees, and last 30 minutes submerged in 30 inches of water. Prices range from $499 to $1,250 for a 64 GB up to a 256GB size.
Take Your Wireless on the Road with the Sprint Sierra Wireless Overdrive
For just $100 and a 2-year service contract, you can take your internet anywhere. The new Sierra wireless router provides both WiMax and 3G signals for up to five devices simultaneously.
Easy Presentations from Your Blackberry with the Blackberry Presenter
Your sales staff no longer needs to lug a laptop to every presentation. Simply use the new Blackberry Presenter device attached to any Blackberry PDA and give your presentations anywhere. The device allows easy connection from a Blackberry to any projector or monitor so your presentations can be delivered easily from the palm of your hand without the setup of a laptop. This new device costs about $199.
Fast Presentations Anywhere with a New LG eXpo Projector.
Now you can literally give an elevator pitch and presentation from your phone. The new LG eXpo is an AT&T exclusive Windows Mobile smartphone that sells for $250 (with a 2-yr AT&T service contract), and it comes with an optional $179 projector.
Now you no longer need a laptop, monitor, or heavy projector. Just set up the mobile device and attachable projector on any flat surface to get an equivalent 66 inch diagonal display. Give a sales presentation, show financial spreadsheets, and even view pictures of the kids from the palm of your hand.
CES certainly debuted its fair share of 3D TVs and gaming advancements, but there are gems that can enhance the productivity of your small business as well.
