Motorola introduces new mobile computer device for backroom operations
19 Sep 2009
Motorola has introduced its new MC9500 mobile computer with new features and a backroom management system.
The MC9500, an industrial-class handheld device will increase productivity, streamline operations and reduce total cost of ownership, said a press release from the company.
The new features include a modular 3.5G WAN.
The MC9500 is the first mobile computer based on Motorola's Mobility Platform Architecture 2.0. The device runs on Marvell XScale PXA320 (at) 806 MHz processor and Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system.
Built with a rugged design and ergonomics, the phone introduces a backroom management system with a unique accessory system and a new approach to battery management.
The model is a result of research and field tests to deliver good performance for mobile workforces in the transportation and logistics, parcel/post, direct store delivery, field service and public safety industries.
"Motorola has proven leadership in mobile computing, initially changing the market landscape with the introduction of the MC9000," said Jayant Rastogi, regional sales director for Motorola Enterprise Mobility Solutions.
Motorola is also introducing the first universal accessory system to maximise backroom efficiency by optimising the space needed for mobile computers, charging cradles, power packs and cables.
The new backroom management system allows users to migrate to newer systems without replacing the backroom infrastructure.
