Aimed at millions of mobile workers involved in architecture, engineering, construction, manufacturing, facilities management and location-based services, the systems being offered deliver full-featured computer-aided design and paperless blueprint processing on a 10.4� high-resolution, ruggedized tablet, with optional 802.11b wireless syncing to leading desktop CAD programs such as AutoCAD�, MicroStation� and GiveMePower�s own PowerCAD Pro� and PowerCAD LT+� desktop systems.
�The dream of full-powered, go-anywhere CAD with wireless connectivity and high-resolution viewing is now a reality,� said Bill Walton, president and CEO of GiveMePower. �Marrying PowerCAD CE with the MobiPanel has produced the perfect mobile solution for everyone from field workers who need to remotely view or redline a digital blueprint, to professional architects and engineers who need to create or update their designs in the field. Given the aggressive price points being offered, I�d say we�ll be hard pressed to keep up with demand.�
Three different PowerCAD CE versions feature up to 300 two and three-dimensional CAD functions, redlining and freehand sketching, round-trip support for industry standard AutoCAD file formats, Lisp and C/C++ programming and exclusive VoiceNOTE� audio note keeping and collaboration technology eliminating the need for time consuming text markup. Able to operate up to 6 hours on a single charge, the MobiPanel features an Intel StrongArm� 206Mhz CPU with 128 MB SDRAM and 32 MB flash ROM, Windows CE 3.0, 10.4� high-brightness 800 x 600 TFT LCD screen, 802.11b wireless LAN with 10/100T base Ethernet through PCMCIA card, magnesium housing and internal shock absorbing able to withstand a 3 foot drop and -10 to 50C spill and dust-resistant operation.
�PowerCAD CE is exactly what the MobiPanel was built for,� comments Bryan Bailey, national sales manager at Advantech. �GiveMePower�s innovative approach to AutoCAD compatible mobile design computing is a perfect fit with our no compromise approach to industrial computer manufacturing. By utilizing both company�s sales and distribution channels, we expect to achieve significant market penetration in a very short time period.�
