i think there may be scope for the manufacturers to offer hardware for a licence / annual fee. That way you would only be fitting there product and the end would justify the means. There would need to be lots of security on the units mind like the car co. units (ie dially check the unit isnt lost, unpaid for, stolen etc. Plus security to get access to the unit.

We plan to use our engineer code for general access, unique pin for each engineer and pin of the day (via smartphone) for access. It will also dially check its allowed to run etc. We have this software now but i dont feel laptops are workable on site as we cant do signatures and they are too dleicate. IMHO

Yeah i've seen they do USB (as well as serial), just a pain the Galaxy still uses serial lol

it is a pain, and such a shame. The classic was such a crackin product. They seem to be mid throws of doing a scantronic (mosaic) imo

Tough book? Bit pricey though! Think we have x2 Mosaics left, need a nice electrical storm me thinks #

So we think the one i linked should run all UDL fine then? (never used windows 7 starter should be fine riiiiiiiight?)

agreed.

I think the asus windows tablets will be the ones, once they get tegra's as the atom is slow imo

Wintex runs on all windows versions. I've currently got it on XP, Vista & 7

yes windows 7 should be fine even starter is full blown win7 but i think there is a limit on open apps. You will run out of processor power before you hit that limit on an atom

got a lenovo s10e,

got it may 2009, ebuyer £165 (linux) & they sent 2 by mistake.... just bunged window on it & use it oftend for work

I just think they are ideal for the field, not too pricey, small enough for the van etc etc
