Industrial Strength Handheld:
No More Pea Brain Handhelds. Introducing Voyager, The Better Handheld with the Bigger Brain.
Your competitors are becoming more aggressive. Margins are shrinking. Customers are more demanding. Now is the time to think bigger. But what are most handheld manufacturers giving you? Smaller! Smaller screens, smaller buttons, smaller brains.
Enter the new TouchPC Voyager. Bigger. Brainier. And much, much better.
The Design that Pushes All the Right Buttons.
Small screens and smaller buttons make life miserable for field personnel with large hands and even larger gloves. That’s why Voyager comes with two large-screen options. The 6-inch color display is the industry’s first full VGA touch screen for a handheld. Providing brilliant color and clarity, the Voyager color display provides plenty of real estate for easy-to-use buttons, and much more. It provides a whole new set of capabilities that you simply can’t get with dinky handhelds.
Just imagine: Full-screen browsing instead of clippings. Full-screen terminal emulation/ telnet. Mechanical drawings. Maps. PDF’s. Even full color video. All available to your field personnel at the touch of a nice, big button. The optional 5.5-inch, half-VGA BriteLite™ monochrome display provides the industry’s best readability in all kinds of outside lighting conditions, from bright sunlight, to haze, to complete darkness.
The Voyager’s ergonomic and lightweight design makes it a pleasure to use for right-and left-handers alike, in either portrait or landscape modes. And the SofTriggers™ located on the side of the unit make scanning items or printing receipts a breeze.
FORGET YOUR p’s AND Q’s
The productivity lost by field personnel “babying” their handhelds impacts your bottom line. And having to replace your PDA every few months due to breakage is a pain. Having to replace your data is a nightmare!
Fortunately, our new handheld follows in the robust tradition of the TouchPC and TouchPC Eagle. The Voyager is, palms down, the most rugged handheld we’ve ever made. Droppable, kickable, smashable, submersible… the Voyager can stand up to the demand of everyday use – and more. Grease, grime, mud, solvents, dust, dirt, and generally sloppy environments are no match for Voyager. From the tough polycarbonate shell, to the DisplayShield™ protective layer, to the sealed and protected PC Card, Compact Flash and expansion slots, the Voyager is built with durability as the main objective and protection of your data as the primary concern. Like a wrench or a hammer, the Voyager is made to be used as a tool. As such, it will perform day in and day out, in all kinds of conditions.
The MOST powerful handheld on the market.
Nothing is more frustrating than sitting and waiting for an application to creep along on an underpowered device. No wonder so many handhelds wind up back on the shelf! But once your users have Voyagers in their hands, they’ll never let them go. Voyager provides blistering performance with unmatched expandability, making it easily the most powerful handheld on the market today. Designed around the industry-leading Intel® StrongARM processor running at over 200 MHz, the Voyager zips through demanding applications with amazing ease. A fast processor can’t do much without memory, so we pack in up to 64MB of RAM and 32MB of flash. If you need even more storage, Voyager has both a Compact Flash slot and PC Card slot for over one Gigabyte of additional storage availability. Bottom line: Voyager is designed to grow with you over years and years of use.
Adding Options is a Snap.
What do most people get when they try to attach other devices to a handheld? Spaghetti! Cables, batteries, wires and hardware can leave you with a jumbled mess. So Voyager takes a simple approach to adding peripherals: Simply snap them on! TouchStar introduced the concept of the hot swappable EndCap™ in 1992, and has been perfecting it ever since. We can combine up to five options to create a custom EndCap to meet your users’ specific requirements. And if you need to connect external devices such as vehicle monitors, sensors, meters, etc., the Voyager has you covered with three serial ports, IrDA, an Ethernet port, and of course the CF and PC Card slots. Plus, our cradles can provide further serial, parallel, USB, Ethernet and keyboard capabilities, and more. Voyager's EndCap options will include:
• Receipt and label printers • Laser scanners • RFID tag readers • Card readers • Cellular phones • Wireless modems • Custom developed devices for specific applications
Talk to Any Device, Anytime, Anywhere.
The allure of mobile computing is being able to get information to and from your field force when it’s needed – not two days later. So the Voyager’s powerful Ethernet, IrDA, serial and wireless communications capabilities literally let it talk to any device, any time, anywhere. Voyager’s wireless options include RFLAN 802.11b, Mobitex, DataTac, GSM, CDMA, CDPD, and any others supported via PC Cards or compact flash cards, including Bluetooth. With all these choices, users can use the wireless carrier that’s right for them – not just right for the handheld – wherever they might be in the world.
