Roper Mobile Technology Unveils Duros Rugged Tablet PC



    Roper Mobile Technology, provider of fully rugged, highly
    customizable computer solutions for challenging environments, today
    announced the debut of the Duros Rugged Tablet PC. The Duros is a
    fourth generation, powerful Windows XP-based tablet PC that is sealed
    to IP-65 levels for dust and water ingress and manufactured to MILSPEC
    810F.

    The Duros is built for "anywhere" use. Equipped with an 8.4-inch
    brilliant sunlight viewable, SVGA resistive touch screen and an AMD
    Geode(TM) LX 800 Processor or Intel Celeron M 1.0 GHz, the Duros packs
    up to 1 GB memory and up to 120GB storage (up to 64GB solid state
    drive). Its hot swappable battery feature diminishes downtime and
    extends battery life.

    The Duros is equipped with integrated Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GSM, GPRS,
    EDGE, UMTS and optional built-in GPS for flexible communication
    options for extremely remote or harsh field applications, such as
    mining, construction, utilities, public safety or the military.

    "The Duros Tablet PC is a key offering in Roper Mobile´s growing
    rugged portfolio. Unlike a laptop, the Duros´ versatile and convenient
    form factor was designed around requirements for our customers who
    carry their computers into highly variable environments," said Eric
    Miller, Vice President at Roper Mobile Technology. "These customers
    demand excellence and reliability and the Duros was designed to meet
    these needs."

    The Duros is available immediately through Roper Mobile´s
    worldwide distribution channels. For product specs, photos and
