Upgraded Optimus from Metrologic
An upgraded range of Optimus handheld computers has been launched in the UK by data capture specialist Metrologic. Avoiding proprietary operating systems such as Windows CE, its range is said to be particularly competitive with other solutions. This means a modest specification is possible. The batch-mode SP5650 OptimusRW includes just 256KB of data memory, with an option to increase to either 2MB, 4MB or 8MB. The real-time OptimusR has 2MB of data memory and additional memory options of 4MB or 8MB for accommodating larger inventories. Among attractions, the lithium-ion rechargeable battery is said to allow for between 16 and 200 hours of scanning operation, depending on the model. The range is said to be suitable for both warehouse and store operations.
