A Pocket PC Device with Maximum Performance and Ruggedness
The PPT 2800 Series, a member of the newest family of Pocket PC-based terminals from Symbol Technologies, combines the strengths of the Pocket PC platform with productivity-enhancing features that include barcode scanning and real-time wireless communication options. Designed with today's mobile worker in mind, the rugged PPT 2800 Series is a productivity tool for business professionals, enabling the Power of Pocket PC to perform where and when it's needed.

Simple, Reliable and Powerful
The Pocket PC platform offers a simple, fast user interface, extensive Internet browsing capabilities, and powerful overall performance, and the PPT 2800 Series transforms business activities, extending this familiar Windows-based platform from the traditional desktop setting to virtually anywhere. Symbol's rigorous quality requirements impart drop, sealing and temperature specifications that are unmatched by other Pocket PC devices. The rugged durability achieved allows the PPT 2800 to withstand the wear and tear of everyday use in any business environment, from the office to the warehouse.
With its fully integrated barcode scanning, Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) or Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) communication and Pocket PC functionality, the PPT 2800 Series provides a complete, easy-to-use data management solution in a single device. Conveniently placed scan triggers and the ergonomic design of the PPT 2800 enable simple one-handed data capture operation, and a high resolution 1/4 VGA display with responsive touch-screen technology further enhance the product's ease of use.
The PPT 2800 Series utilizes the Intel® StrongARM SA 1110 processor, running at 206 MHz and comes with the processing power and memory capacity to meet any data or application need. It is fully compatible with 32-bit application development tools from Microsoft and third parties, and provides the standard PIM software and synchronization capabilities of the Pocket PC platform. An application-programming interface (API) from Symbol makes it simple to integrate barcode data capture and wireless communication into new or existing applications.

Mobility Improves Performance The rugged, feature-rich PPT 2800 product family helps increase productivity and efficiency in a host of industries. Warehouse personnel easily record inventory levels as shipments flow in and out. Service professionals can offer curbside check-in at hotels and more efficient table service at restaurants.
Physicians and caregivers can access current patient records from anywhere in the hospital, while school administrators, teachers and staff can retrieve and update student records from anywhere on campus. The PPT 2800 can do it all, right down to mobilizing price checking and inventory tasks in retail environments as well as package tracking throughout the shipping pipeline. From field service and sales force automation to route accounting or office management, the PPT 2800 provides an ideal solution for mobile applications.
