Go, Gadgets!

Wednesday July 29, 2009
Not so long ago, we had to check the hotel front desk for faxes and call our office voicemail every hour to keep up with messages. Those days are over. While I miss the benefits of my boss or client not being able to track me down (I hope they are not reading this), today’s electronic gadgets definitely make business travel more efficient.

I can’t remember how I managed before the Blackberry - my faithful travel companion - but it’s not the only gizmo I couldn’t live without. From a Chargepod to a GPS navigation system, check out my list of must-have gadgets for productive business travel.

It’s true,gadgets are exactly what keep true business travelers sane! Obviously, you can’t take the kitchen sink with you but you can truly be smart about what gadgets you do take! My favorites are a travel printer and pockets sized solar charger.
