\"Motorola<\/a>Rugged, ergonomic mobile computer<\/a> delivers new level of flexibility to businesses and government agencies<\/strong><\/p>\n

Motorola, Inc. announced the new MC3100 series of mobile computers<\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c offering advanced computing power, industry-leading data capture options, enterprise-class motion sensing capabilities, and the most versatile form factor for mid-range mobile computing. The next-generation MC3100 provides enterprise mobility customers with a single, cost-effective in-premise solution for converged voice and data communications. In addition, the MC3100 leverages the ergonomic and lightweight rugged design of the category-leading MC3000<\/a>, which has sold more than 750,000 units.<\/p>\n

Designed for key-based and touch-screen applications inside the enterprise, such as price\/stock management, inventory control<\/a>, returns processing, shipping and receiving, baggage tracking and asset management<\/a>, the Motorola MC3100 series of mobile computers is purpose-built to meet the demanding needs of diverse customer environments. With its robust features, the MC3100 mobile computer will help retailers, government agencies<\/a> and distribution centers streamline business processes, improve employee productivity and enhance customer service and satisfaction.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Motorola\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s legacy of excellence in design and ergonomics continues with the MC3100 mobile computer \u00e2\u20ac\u201c helping organizations increase productivity, streamline operations and reduce total-cost-of-ownership,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Gerald McNerney, vice president of mobile computing product management, Motorola Enterprise Mobility Solutions. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153With an MC3100 in their hands, in-building mobile workers across a range of industries will have an ergonomically superior device that provides access to better information to make better decisions all resulting in better outcomes.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n

Motorola\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s MC3100 series of mobile computers provides the flexibility needed for diverse business needs \u00e2\u20ac\u201c offering a family of models for customers to mix and match to best meet user and application demands. By offering three keypads and three distinct form factors, Motorola continues to provide a breadth of choices for flexibility and versatility in a range of work environments. Equipped with the Marvell XScale PXA320 @ 624 MHz processor, each model offers a choice of operating systems and advanced data capture technologies. Microsoft Corp.\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Windows Mobile\u00c2\u00ae 6.1 provides users with a wide array of ISV applications plus a familiar and intuitive interface that reduces training time, while the componentized, real-time Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Pro platform provides a familiar programming environment to support the development of rich custom applications with intuitive user experiences. Customers can also choose from the Symbol SE950 1D laser scanner for the rapid and accurate capture of all 1D symbologies \u00e2\u20ac\u201d including damaged and poor quality bar codes often found in the warehouse or retail aisles or the Symbol SE4500 1D\/2D imager for the capture of 1D and 2D bar codes as well as direct part marks, still images and documents.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Microsoft is pleased to work with Motorola to extend the power of the PC by fueling the rich user experiences and streamlined connectivity enterprise users and consumers demand from emerging specialized devices,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Mukund Ghangurde, director of product management for the Windows Embedded Marketing Group at Microsoft. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Motorola\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s MC3100 is a strong example of a device offering a choice of Microsoft operating systems with the versatility enterprise customers demand for productivity and a rich set of programming tools for application developers.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n

The MC3100 also incorporates Motorola MAX Sensor \u00e2\u20ac\u201d enterprise class motion sensing applications. Motorola interactive sensor technology (IST) is a new Motorola innovation that supports a host of motion-sensing applications that enable organizations to derive increased business value. For example, organizations can increase worker accountability by detecting and logging device drops and improve power management by enabling the MC3100 mobile computer to automatically revert to sleep mode when not in use or if the display is face down. And for added flexibility, in applications such as signature capture, the integrated accelerometer allows the display to dynamically rotate or switch between portrait and landscape modes based on the orientation of the device.<\/p>\n

Leveraging Motorola\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s new Mobility Platform Architecture 2.0, the MC3100 series preserves existing application investments by enabling seamless porting of applications from other Motorola mobile computers. In addition, the MPA 2.0 next-generation platform increases wireless security via MAX Secure \u00e2\u20ac\u201d which includes FIPS 140-2 certification required for government deployments.<\/p>\n

The MC3100 series also offers comprehensive centralized management to streamline operations and reduce total-cost-of-ownership. Equipped with an integrated UHF RFID tag \u00e2\u20ac\u201c the new MC3100 series enables enterprises to leverage existing or planned RFID deployments \u00e2\u20ac\u201c right out of the box. The integrated RFID tag allows customers to track the movement and location of the mobile computers to effortlessly maintain a real-time inventory of assets. And for additional device manageability, Motorola\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Mobility Suite offers comprehensive management solutions that provide centralized control of the MC3100 and other Motorola mobile computers. Motorola Mobility Services Platform (MSP) enables remote staging, provisioning, monitoring and troubleshooting of the MC3100 regardless of where it is located.<\/p>\n

To help customers maintain peak performance, Motorola Enterprise Mobility Services recommends Service from the Start with Comprehensive Coverage for inside-outside protection for the MC3100. Customers can rest assured that no matter what is damaged \u00e2\u20ac\u201d from broken displays, keypads, and internal and external components to select accessories \u00e2\u20ac\u201d the repair is covered. With Motorola\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Service from the Start with Comprehensive Coverage, unexpected repair expenses are significantly reduced, providing service peace of mind. And technical software support helps keep the MC3100 running at optimal efficiency \u00e2\u20ac\u201d and customers connected to their critical business systems.<\/p>\n
