Fastest Windows CE Device Now Has Latest OS, Giving

Enterprise Customers Access To Desktop Applications

In A Wireless-Ready Mobile Device

Intermec Technologies Corp. now is shipping its popular 6651 notepad computer in a version that supports Microsoft Handheld PC 2000 (H/PC 2000), Intermec said today.

Based on the Microsoft Windows CE 3.0 operating system, H/PC 2000 devices like the 6651 include an integrated client for Windows 2000 Terminal Services, a Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0-compatible browser, Windows Media(TM) Player for digital music, an e-mail client, Personal Information Manager (PIM) functionality, and pocket versions of desktop Office applications.

With a BSQUARE (bUSEFUL(TM)) Analyzer benchmark score of 58.22, the 6651 is the fastest Windows CE device available.

"Millions of workers rely on portable devices as their primary connection to the enterprise," said Craig Miller, Intermec senior product manager for handheld computing products. "H/PC 2000 is a robust, highly flexible, no-compromises standard that extends the full function of critical business applications to mobile professionals in remote locations."

Intermec also is providing optional field upgrades for existing 6651s so that all 6651s will support the new Microsoft OS version.

With its integrated digital camera, bright, active-matrix screen, and support for optional Wi-Fi certified (802.11 high rate) wireless network capabilities, Intermec's 6651 handheld pen tablet computer is designed to be a powerful tool for mobile and field workers who need to document and report critical visual images.

The 6651's one-of-a-kind fold-over display can be operated in either a clamshell or pen tablet format. Its "flip-screen"' software feature lets users reverse the angle of the display panel to change the unit into a signature-capture device so customers can digitally sign receipts and proofs of delivery.

Specifications

Based on the Microsoft Windows CE operating system, the 6651 features a 7.1-inch active-matrix LCD (TFT) screen that displays 64K colors. The unit's built-in color digital camera has a 350,000-pixel CMOS imaging sensor to capture still images as well as short video clips.

Based on Toshiba's powerful 129 MHz MIPS processor, the unit comes standard with 32 MB RAM and a Lithium ION battery pack that recharges in only 2.5 hours. The 6651 is certified for Intermec wireless LANs (11 mbps. Wi-Fi, IEEE 802.11b and OpenAir). It has both PC Card and Compact Flash capabilities, and VGA /Serial, IrDA and USB ports.

The 6651 carries a suggested retail price of $1,495. The unit is also available for sale at www.mobileplanet.com.
