The VX8 and VX9 computers are rugged, wirelessly enabled Windows XP-based mobile PC&#8217;s with 10.4&#8221; and 12.1&#8221; touch-screen displays that are designed for vehicle-mounted use in tough environments.<br \/>\n&#8220;With these new Windows XP vehicle-mounted computers, LXE offers a broad product line to meet customers&#8217; specific rugged computing requirements. The VX8 and VX9 enable<br \/>\norganisations to run more advanced applications, but still leverage existing computer support resources. That, combined with LXE&#8217;s industry-leading customer service and support network,<br \/>\ncan equate to greater cost savings, flexibility and reliability.&#8221; Recent LXE customer research has revealed that a greater number of customers now have a preference for Windows XP over Windows CE as the operating system platform for vehiclemount computers. The growing interest in Windows XP among LXE&#8217;s current customer base was attributed to several factors, including the ability of the operating system to handle a wider range of mobile applications and to simplify network administration. &#8220;As warehouses and port facilities become more operationally complex, so too is the information required by employees at the point of interaction or activity,&#8221; said David Krebs, mobile &#038; wireless director, VDC Research. &#8220;To support more advanced data collection and communication applications, VDC is seeing increased demand for vehicle mounted computers supported by a full OS &#8211; such as XP &#8211; in these environments. Moreover, additional benefits in the form of cost savings are expected as organisations adopt a single OS platform strategy.&#8221; The compact VX8 computer is ideal for applications where users need high-performance computing in a small package. The slim-line VX9 computer, which is available with an XGA display option, is targeted at users that need a larger screen area. Available with WWAN, WLAN and Bluetooth radios, both the VX8 and VX9 computers are suitable for a range of vehicle-mounted applications in challenging deployment environments, including those on forklift trucks, container handling machinery, forestry and construction equipment, and emergency service vehicles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LXE Inc. has extended its industryleading line of vehicle-mount computing solutions with the new VX8 and VX9 rugged mobile computers.
