Mufaddal 678 Report post Posted October 10, 2008 Motorola has announced a new industrial PDA phone CPC VC6096, which relies on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional. Scrap that, it’s not a phone even though it does support GSM and even HSDPA — this “handset” weighs 2.2 kilos! That’s 4.85 pounds! Compared to VC6096, the HTC Advantage is a pocketable baby. However, there’s a reason for all the bulkiness. The device is designed to be used as an in-vehicle/fixed mount mobile computer. It has a full QWERTY keyboard, 6.5-inch VGA (640×480 pixels) touchscreen, enough memory (128 MB SDRAM/256 MB Flash), solid processing power (XScale PXA270 624 MHz), built-in SiRF Star III GPS receiver, WiFi connectivity support and a whole lot more. The key selling point, though, is the “increased protection to external shocks.” To ensure the VC6096 keeps working all the time, Motorola made sure virtually all possible protection-related acronyms are on board — including IP64, MIL-STD 810E, Method 514.4, Ground Mobile (VIII), MIL-STD 810E 516.4, MIL-STD-810E, 516.5 Proc VI, MIL-STD 810F, MIL-STD 810E, Method 505.3. I can only hope something of all those protection acronyms actually mean something . If not, keep LET GO OFF THIS news source jampblog Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
