Psion Teklogix launches the new WORKABOUT PRO 3 – faster, better ergonomics, and the most modular device on the market

The new model has been developed incorporating some of the ideas revealed today as the company unveils a radical overhaul of its business model with a move to “Open Source Mobility” (OSM), an open innovation philosophy which means it can co-create solutions with its partners and customers.  The new philosophy means that Psion Teklogix will have the industry’s most modular product platform, sharing common components and tools with developers, resellers and clients.  It will allow them to create highly tailored modules for mobile devices built on Psion’s versatile product platform.

The new Workabout Pro 3 includes enhancements that make it the most modular and rugged device available today that meets or exceeds the IP65 International Protection Rating:

·         Improved usability – the option of four new keyboard layouts including a full QWERTY keyboard and additional keys makes it easier to navigate even with one hand. 

·         Visibility/long life – a sharper, brighter display that is 25 percent more efficient than previous versions not only makes the new Workabout Pro 3 easier to read and see in a variety of lighting conditions, but also extends the battery life of the device. 

·         Faster – the new Workabout Pro 3 is optimized for improved performance with twice the RAM and four times more Flash ROM memory to run applications even faster. 

·        Durability – the handheld device can withstand dust, water and extreme temperatures. The new Workabout Pro 3 is also tested to survive multiple six foot drops onto concrete.
