Motorola has introduced a new EDA – that’s Enterprise Digital Assistant – that aims to take the PDA to a whole new level with an “all-in-one communication device that harnesses the voice and data applications people expect from an office setting and delivers them in the form of a durable and compact handheld mobile computer.” The Motorola MC35 is a rugged enterprise solution for the business person on-the-go.
With more power and functionality than Motorola’s popular fashion-oriented phones, the new MC35 EDA (manufactured by Symbol) definitely trades smarts for looks. The MC35 succeeds the previous MC50 and MC70 offerings from Motorola, and keeps in line with the tradition of serving up enterprise features with business-critical ruggedness. It’s too bad that ruggedness takes the place of “prettiness.”
The EDA comes packed to the gills with features – Bluetooth, GPS, WiFi, GSM/EDGE, bar-code reader, camera, speakerphone, push-to-talk technology, Intel Xscale PXA270 @ 416Mhz, and Windows Mobile 5.0 with MS Direct Push Email -
The Motorola MC35 EDA is expected to drop April 2007 for around $700, depending on configuration.
