Just a few months after Glacier Computer unveiled its ultra-rugged
E4000 Touch PC, the company is showing its rough and tough side once
more with the Ridgeline T100. The Windows CE-powered device offers up a
bulky, rugged frame along with plenty of touchpanel real estate and
features that industrial users will surely love.
Designed specifically for hardcore applications and field computer users, the T100 ships with an 8.4" color display, 802.11 Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Windows CE, an SSD, instant on/off operation, a sealed IP54-rated chassis, a hot-swap battery option and loads of input/output options. For those looking for a different OS, Glacier also offers models with Windows XP, Embedded XP and Linux. From what we can gather, actual spec options are pretty open, so feel free to ping these guys if you're looking to order. The full press release is copied below.
