ihabkal Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 WHat is the single best business purchase you made in 2008? Mine was a Panasonic 8" screen portable dvd player, I use it to show clients samples of my animations, and the progress in their animations, and my wife uses it to entertain the kids during the daily power outages. It's battery lasts for 3 to 6 hours. Costed me $250, but I am sure in the states it is much cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sterealkey Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 First best purchase: Sony Bravia 32" LCD - Awesome for client presentation, and even better for XBox360. Second best purchase: An Apple iPhone 3G, especially the Calender and Safari part. I never forget a thing anymore, and I'm able to Google or Wiki anything anytime (well I didn't purchase it, 'twas a Xmas gift from my lady, love her to bits) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
