Dear Customer,

At the turn of the year we started a partnership with EntaNet to provide 21st Century Network Broadband connections and other internet services under the Boffins brand. We already have some customers up and running and have successfully migrated our own connections. And now that we are sure about the quality of the products and support, have trained our engineers, and have developed significant experience, we are delighted to offer the products more widely.

In this newsletter we are launching the first of our Building Blocks to your 21st Century Business. High quality broadband provision is the cornerstone that will enable you to enjoy the benefits discussed last month. Boffins C21 Plus Broadband is true business quality and will deliver up to 24Mbit download speeds on enabled exchanges with up to 1Mbit upstream. All this comes with static IPs included at a highly competitive business tariff.

We have appointed John Gardner as product manager for Boffins’ broadband products so that you can be sure of a worry free experience. Ask us for a fixed price quote for new installations and migrations.

…a snappy follow up

In Our May issue we featured the ScanSnap scanner from Fujistu. Barely the size of a laptop computer, it converts a scan into a PDF or JPEG file at the touch of a button, and can handle colour and two sided documents.

Here at Boffins we always practice what we preach, and have put the ScanSnap to a tough task. Over the last few weeks we’ve scanned over 10,000 of our archived documents. The result - the contents of several filing cabinets now resides on a
few CD’s!

We’ve also loaded the information onto our Intranet, this mean that all our staff have fingertip access, and because the ScanSnap indexes the documents as it scans, search and retrieval is a breeze.

Just load the ScanSnap with your documents, press go, and walk away while it gets to work!
