Box reveals smallest-yet pen tablet
Less than one inch thick, weighing only 2.2lb and about the size of a
paperback book, the industry’s smallest and lightest pen tablet, Motion
LS800, is now available from Bicester-based Box Technologies.
The LS800, which runs Windows XP, has a Pentium M processor,
high-speed wireless capability and an 8.4 inch display, and can be
hand-held or carried on a belt. Its slim standard battery gives up to
three hours of continuous use, and additional batteries are
‘warm-swappable’ when the unit is in standby mode, allowing users to
change batteries without powering down or rebooting.
An embedded Trusted Platform Module enables hardware-protected
encryption, as well as digital certificate storage for authentication
and secure email applications. A built-in fingerprint reader, meanwhile,
uses biometric data to prevent unauthorised access to applications.
