Motion Computing announced upgrades to the F5 semi-rugged tablet PC and new custom peripherals. The F5 features improved capacity with standard 80 GB hard disk drives (HDD) at no additional cost.
“Customer feedback is a critical part of improving our tablet PCs, and based on recent input we’re confident that these upgrades will enable our target customers to be more productive, no matter where work takes them,” said Mike Stinson, VP of Marketing at Motion.
With a new standard 80 GB HDD in the Motion F5 semi-rugged tablet PC, mobile field forces in construction, government, field sales and service, and manufacturing are now able to store more images and other documentation, allowing them to complete tasks and solve customer issues when away from the office.
Motion also announced today new peripherals for the F5 that offer expanded options to more easily transport, charge and utilize the PCs while away from the office or standard docking stations.
Motion tablet PCs now ship with Windows Vista Business, which offers integrated features that improve the tablet computing experience. Benefits include improved handwriting recognition, enhanced searching capabilities, tablet input panel with auto-fill features for email addresses and URLs and pen clicks that enable users to quickly conduct an action with a simple pen gesture.
The Motion F5 and Flex Carry are available now through Motion’s network of resellers and distributors. The Mobile Dock is expected to ship August 1, 2008. Visit www.motioncomputing.com/buy/index.asp for more information.
