MOTO's ES400 is a Hardcore Edition to Enterprise Mobile Class Devices

21 Jun, 2010, 10:21 am IST | by Shayne Rana | Smartphones

The Enterprise Mobility Solutions division of Motorola, Inc. has announced the newest addition to its mobile computing portfolio – the ES400 global Enterprise Digital Assistant (EDA). The ES400’s integrated voice and data capabilities are designed to unleash the full potential of mobile professionals by empowering them with the information and interaction they need to transform operations, increase enterprise profitability and complete their jobs from anywhere and at anytime.


This is Motorola’s smallest and lightest EDA and it combines a sleek form factor with advanced performance – allowing mobile workforces to overcome productivity challenges and securely access business-critical applications on the go. Built on the Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.5 platform, the ES400 EDA enables workers in field service, field sales, retail, healthcare, utilities, manufacturing, transportation/distribution and small- and medium-sized businesses to collect data and access business-critical applications and back-end systems on the spot. 

Key enterprise features include:
  • Customizable Motorola Enterprise User Interface (MEUI) makes business-critical information and functions available with one key press. Includes enterprise-specific enhancements like photo annotation.
  • One button push-to-scan: 1D and 2D bar code reading fulfilling the needs of mobile workers.
  • Large, 3-inch VGA (640 x 480) resistive touchscreen screen allowing signature capture (750 NITS – nearly twice as bright as consumer devices for usage indoors and outdoors) plus integrated QWERTY keyboard.
  • 3.5G WAN: GSM HSPA and CDMA EVDO RevA compatibility.
  • Broad WLAN functionality supporting 802.11 a/b/g, enabling data, and in 2011, an application for push-to-talk over VoIP compatibility will also be available.
  • Durable construction to withstand dust, drops and bumps occurring every business day. Meets MIL-STD 810G drop specifications leading to lower total cost of ownership.
  • Enterprise-class security including built-in biometric fingerprint reader.
  • Three-year life cycle.
  • The device also features integrated GPS for navigation.
  • Memory can also be expanded via microSD cards.
  • The ES400 also supports Biometric (finger swipe) and PIN code security functions.
  • A 3 megapixel camera with an LED flash is also on-board.
The new ES400 will be the first Motorola mobile computer to be carrier-branded, stocked and sold to enterprises through the Sprint Direct and Business Solutions Partners sales channels.

 
Motorola’s new ES400 EDA will be available later this year to customers through the Motorola EMS sales team, Sprint and members of the PartnerEmpower channel program. There’s no word on its Indian arrival, but if it did make it here, the big question is, could this be a threat to the BlackBerry way of life.
