Big success. In 2000 we were ready on the next platform Psion NetPad and NetBook. Why did Psion Teklogix destroy it all by convert to Microsoft. I agree "Where are the industrial smartphones". Perhaps NAVTEQ (Garmin?) will help Nokia to find the market again. We have sold several thousands of Epoc based PDA:s in the industrial market. Psion NetPad was perfect with Epoc, but useless with Windows CE. We started in 1986 with our GEODOS software on Psion OrganizerII In 1995 we ported GEODOS to Psion Workabout range. Big success.

We would love to use the old operating system again because it would make our devices last at leaset 3x as long... Oh Well, Change the minds of the IT buyers / app writers and then we will Well Psion Tekloigx would make a symbian Rugged PDA like the workabout MX which runs EPOC, a precurser to the Symbian OS, if the market wanted one but all of the research says that the IT “Gurus” that buy the rugged devices want Windows Mobile 6 or Windows CE 5 (soon to be 6) because they don’t want to learn how to program efficiantly!
