Hi
I filled in your survey
I am afraid I should stop filling in surveys
The questinons on ALL marketing surveys do not allow me to say what I think
would be useful
for instance: we are a company with a new zealand-wide presence, AND we
are a company which is based overseas with NZ branches
The list of possible job descriptions was very short
links to a central computer with bluetooth seems pretty silly: bluetooth
only goes 10 metres: maybe you meant bluetooth to a phone which is
connected
describing GPRS or CDMA as continuously connected to the network is
optimistic. I am using both, and they both disconnect regularly after a
few minutes inactivity, and the reconnect time is significant (much better
than a land-line modem: but a landline modem is faster, generally).
I have evaluated an iPaq myself in the last 12 months
I am not recommending the technology for general use. The screen is simply
too small to be able to get a lot of work done
It does not have enough to replace the laptop, and if we have to carry a
laptop (bigger screen) and an ipaq and a mobile phone (decent battery
life), it gets a bit much
I was hoping the ipaq could replace the laptop and the phone for users with
less technical requirements
An area we may investigate is with customised software and a barcode
scanner in the warehouse
conventional handheld barcodes scanner devices are very expensive, and
require no less bespoke programming than writing a program for the barcode
reader
kind regards
