Posted by Jon Westfall in "HARDWARE" @ 04:07 PM
"Socket Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: SCKT), dba Socket Mobile, Inc., an innovative provider of mobile productivity solutions, today announced a new line of products to be built with an antibacterial plastic targeted toward healthcare and other markets that involve hygiene-sensitive environments. The first product combination to debut in the new line is the SoMo™ 650 handheld computer and docking cradle, which will be on display at the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) annual conference and exhibition in the Socket Mobile booth #1312. SoMo 650 handheld computer product demonstrations will also be taking place in the Cisco booth #6251 in conjunction with its recently attained Cisco Compatible Extensions (CCX) 4.0 certification."
We've posted on rugged computers, but this is the first time I've seen a computer designed for rugged cleanliness! With the fact that I've been sick twice in the last month, perhaps I should look into one of these! All kidding aside, Socket's solution looks like it may be a nice addition to a hospital IT department near you.
