Hmmm… if you have been following my blog, you will realise that I am trying to set up an offshore development office in Pakistan. The problem with Pakistan is that their electronic gadgets are a far cry from what you see in Singapore. Tried to get a Skype certified webcam and failed terribly. BTW, it was reported that Skype worked closely with Logitech to develop some kind of high quality video. had to try it out to see if it just a scam …

That called for a certain amount of personal sacrifice in terms of both time and money…
I popped over to Sim Lim and purchased the following:
- 2 sets of QuickCam Pro 9000 (Costs 179 SGD each.. but bargained to 165 SGD)
- 2 sets of Microsoft LifeCam VX-1000 (Costs 45 SGD each… but bargained to 40 SGD)
As usual, I am broke. And as usual, I am reading. Hmmm… actually the broke part is really hard to imagine, considering the amount of work I have been doing these past months. But then again, business is all about cashflow. And when u take into the account that some customers are taking up to a year to pay me…. maybe it is not too hard to understand after all. Now I start worrying about bad debts…. (no lah… just kidding… those customers I know should not be defaulting… not in this economic climate….)
