Wot's on: 3 April 2008

The industry is still as busy as ever. Here's the low-down on what went down, and what's coming up.

Meteor hits Melbourne
Everyone loves an open house, so if you're in Melbourne, why not pop in to The Digital Impressions Group's launch of the MGI Meteor DP40 PRO.

"It's a brand-building exercise to spread the word about MGI," said Warren Davey, managing director. "It's a professional digital printing solution."

The launch kicked off on Wednesday, but runs through until Friday 4. "So far, we've had a very positive response from all attendees," said Davey. "We will hold a similar event in Sydney after drupa."

The MGI launch takes place on the following times:
Thursday 3 April: 10.30 am, 1.30pm and 7pm
Friday 4 April: 10.30am and 1.30pm
