Box reveals smallest-yet pen tablet

http://bjhc.co.uk/news/industry/2005/ind512003.htm

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.
