    Designed to offer full rugged performance in the most mobile package
possible, the Nautiz X3 measures only 150x67x23 mm and weighs less than 260
grams, but carries an IP65 rating and passes full MIL-STD-810G testing.

    The Nautiz X3 is equipped with a powerful 806 MHz X-Scale processor,
operates Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional and has a range of performance
features including 3G cellular, a 3-megapixel camera with autofocus and LED
flash, WLAN, and Bluetooth. It also has a standard 1D laser scanner, with an
optional 2D imager.

    The Nautiz X3 is equipped with 256 MB of RAM for advanced applications,
and 512 MB Flash memory for storage. It has a powerful 3300 mAh Li-Ion
battery that will power the computer through a full work day. The 2.8 inch

market. We're offering a handheld PDA that's smaller and lighter than most
similar computing tools - and yet it still meets IP65 and MIL-STD810G
standards. It has fast voice and data performance - plus all the performance
features you'd expect from a rugged PDA which makes it go beyond a
smartphone. It has a combination of size, performance, ruggedness and value
that the market hasn't seen before," said Jerker Hellstrom, CEO and Chairman
