PDA Phone – Why Are They The Next Trend In The Mobile Computers World?

Only a few years ago, the PDA concept was introduced for the first time. The first Palm Pilot’s his the market and millions of people were hoped right away. The combination of a personal electronic organizes along with a powerful computer was a great solution for many people who were looking to get more done without sitting down with their lap-top or desk-top computers.

Later on, the wireless PDA’s were introduced, causing even more stir, and the PDA’s became even more sophisticated, allowing their users to surf the web wirelessly, download and send e-mail’s and the like.

But then – the wind shifted.

It had became apparent the PDA’s could not replace the notebook computers, that were getting thinner, lighter and cheaper, while offering the users the same abilities of a regular PC, but in a mobile fashion. A PDA, as good as it can be, can’t replace a PC.
So at this time, the PDA industry was standing at a crossroad. It had to make the right choice in order to survive.
And what we got as an answer to he notebook computer was the PDA, also known as the smart phone. This was a smart move, as it addressed people’s needs. Let’s take a look at a few reasons to own and use a smart phone:

1.You already use a cell phone, and you probably own a PDA (or intent to buy one). So why not combine the two? You get two in one – more value for your dollars.
2.You’ll probably save hundreds of dollar in future years, when you will want to upgrade your PDA phone. You will only need to upgrade one device instead of two (PDA and a cell phone separately)
3.Save time – Owning two tools that have so many over lapping function is time consuming. For example, It’s much easier to maintain just one email account and addresses instead of one of them at your cell phone and one at your PDA.
4.Many cell phones are limited in their memory capacity and their overall ability to handle various tasks. The PDA’s however, were created for these missions. The PDA phone therefore is a phone with a huge capacity for handling almost anything. This just makes your life a lot easier.
5.Integration – The biggest reason for merging these two vital tools is to enjoy the benefits of integration. You’ll be able to organize your calendar, talk to your clients, download emails, surf the web, and listen to an mp3 music file all at the same place without needing to switch appliances.

The PDA phone is a very logical choice for everyone who is trying to get more out of his day and save time and money. It really makes no sense to be carrying both a PDA and a cell phone around when you can have both in one.

The Latest In Mobile Computers

The recently released Honeywell Dolphin 9700 mobile computer, also referred to as a rugged digital assistant, further builds upon the HHP (Hand Held Products) line of Dolphin mobile computers.  This handheld mobile computer is far beyond a mobile computer with an integrated barcode scanner, but a new device that that can help maximizes worker productivity and reduces operating costs.  With its multi-functional data collection and communications capabilities in one reliable, easy-to-use device, mobile workers can perform a broad range of tasks including email, instant messaging, web browsing, barcode scanning, GPS tracking, picture taking and even video recording.  It truly is amazing how advances in mobile computers continue to proceed at such a rapid rate.

According to Honeywell, the Honeywell Dolphin 9700 mobile computer was built from the ground up and features Honeywell’s Adaptus Imaging Technology for advanced barcode scanning which ensures that barcodes are read accurately and fast. The built-in barcode imager is capable of reading both 1D and 2D barcodes and is set at an angle, allowing workers to scan barcodes while still providing a full view of the crisp 3.7″ VGA screen. An optional 2 megapixel camera takes high quality color photos which  is ideal for adding visual documentation to receiving orders or customer accounts that have been scanned. For communication, all Honeywell Dolphin 9700 units come with 802.11a/b/g and Bluetooth radios standards as well optional GPS and GSM/HSDPA cellular radios.  For rugged barcode scanning applications, the Dolphin 9700 has an IP64 seal meaning that it completely protects the internals from dust and is resistant to splashes of water. The Dolphin 9700’s rugged design also allows it to withstand 5 foot drops to concrete, making this device excellent for withstanding the rigors of day-to-day barcode scanning in the field or warehouse.

Another unique feature of the Dolphin 9700 mobile computer is that it is available in Honeywell’s disinfectant-ready housings which are better able to resist the harsh cleaning chemicals used in healthcare environments. The reliable 9700 helps healthcare providers quickly and accurately perform bedside patient care including medication verification through bar code scanning, and more. With the large, bright display, and the high-speed wireless connection, healthcare providers can easily scan patient barcode information and quickly transmit it to the patients’ electronic medical record. Additionally, the comfortable grip and Honeywell’s Shift-PLUS power management system, which enhances productivity by powering real-time wireless and multi-media applications continuously for 8 hours or more, ensure that nurses have a device to support them throughout their entire shift.

Next month, we will take a look at the Motorola MC9500-K mobile computer and see what this new barcode capable handheld can do.  If you need pricing or additional information on either the Honeywell Dolphin 9700 or the Motorola MC9500K, visit my recommended website at AutoSavings.com or contact a Mobile Computing specialist at (714)922-1140.

Edmond Shi has worked in the computer industry since the early 1980s when he began his professional life as a software developer.  Now he is concern with different types of barcode printer and barcode scanner technology and product design.
