Hammerhead XRT Wins Pen Computing Magazine Editor's Choice Award
West Palm Beach, FL, October 23, 2003 — WalkAbout Computers' rugged, mobile Hammerhead XRT has received the 2003 Editor's Choice Award in the Tablet PC category from Pen Computing Magazine.. In the publication's recently released 2003 Buyer's Guide, the Hammerhead XRT was selected as the best overall choice among 15 Tablet PCs reviewed by the magazine in this category. Through the Editor's Choice Awards, Pen Computing recognizes "devices that are intelligently designed, well built and technologically innovative."
The Buyer's Guide article states that the Hammerhead XRT "compares to consumer-grade Tablet PCs the way a Hummer does to a family sedan: both drive, but the Hummer is designed to take extreme punishment under the harshest conditions." The article also highlights the Hammerhead XRT's milled-aluminum case, IP67 rating for complete protection from moisture and dust, and unique transflective display that is viewable both outdoors and indoors.
“Our Hammerhead XRT Tablet PC has generated a great deal of excitement in the marketplace,” said David Grainger, CEO of WalkAbout Computers. “We are pleased that one of the most prestigious publications in our industry has recognized our leadership position in the design and manufacture of rugged, mobile Tablet PCs.”
