Windows 95 goes in
handheld

Intermec Technologies (UNA) announced a new
handheld computer that runs Windows 95 and uses
a 99-MHz Advanced Micro Devices 486
processor.

While Microsoft is pushing Windows CE as the
operating system (OS) of choice
for handheld devices, Intermec is
offering a customized version of
Microsoft's desktop standard in a
28-ounce device that comes with
up to 32MB of memory and an
optional hard drive.

Intermec officials say that the
company plans to use Windows
CE in upcoming devices, however.

The PenKey 6110 is being pitched for users such
as mobile field workers who need to collect and
send data. Users can input data on the
240-by-320-pixel display either with a pen or by
touch. The device can also be equipped with
technology for wireless data transmission to area
networks, as well as scanners and extra PC Card
expansion slots, the company said.

Frost & Sullivan forecasts that the market for
handheld data terminals will show 22.3 percent unit
volume growth through the year 2002. Revenues
are expected to reach $1.77 billion by that time.

Pricing on the 6110 has not been finalized,
according to the company.
