Real-Time Wireless Communications
With a wireless-ready Toughbook, field technicians can start and end the day in the field, completing more jobs per day. No need to pick up job orders at the operations office or return paper forms at night. Transmit new work assignments to field technicians as soon as they are received. Instantly dispatch the closest or best-equipped teams. Update service records and manage parts inventory in real-time. Field personnel can also process payments, provide customers with a printed copy of their work order and close out jobs on the spot. Toughbooks support all nationwide wireless networks including CDPD, DataTAC (MotientSM Network) and Mobitex (Cingular Interactive), and will support new technologies such as GSM/GPRS and 1xRTT/CDMA.

Integrated GPS System
The Toughbook's optional, integrated Global Positioning Satellite system enables you to quickly access maps, street locations and driving directions without leaving your vehicle or relying on outdated, printed maps. You'll find job locations more quickly, eliminating costly delays when covering unfamiliar territory. You can also track technicians via an Automatic Vehicle Locating (AVL) system. By knowing the location of field personnel with specific skills, you can accurately send the correct team to handle specialized jobs.

Exceptional Portability
Toughbooks are easy to carry in the field. The Toughbook 29 has a built-in handle for convenient portability as does the Toughbook 34, which only weighs 3.8 lbs. It is easy to hold in one hand while using tools or testing equipment in the other. The Toughbook 07 mini PC can be worn in the optional holster for unimpeded movement in tight spaces. And with the 1.5 lbs. MDWD (Mobile Data Wireless Display) touchscreen, using 802.11b, you can work up to 300 ft. from any wireless LAN-enabled Toughbook for unsurpassed mobility.
