“The decision to partner with Wavelink was driven by a desire to help channel partners to lessen the design and development time of mobile solutions and reduce the time to market.” commented Judy Huang, Unitech’s Communication & Development Manager.

The move sees Unitech adopting Wavelink’s Avalanche Mobility Center (MC) plus Avalanche Remote Control and Avalanche CE Secure plug-ins. Combined these solutions will enable channel partners to have full real time visibility and management of wireless infrastructure and mobile devices, wherever they may be located. Mobility solutions can be deployed to remote devices faster via Avalanche Remote Control. Avalanche CE Secure provides added security to lock down devices that are lost or stolen.

“Adding Wavelink to our rugged mobile devices also enables partners to offer support and managed services to their end user customers, by giving them the ability to easily push new software out to devices, remotely troubleshoot problems and securely lock down mobile computers." Huang added continuously.]]> <![CDATA[Unitech Adopts Oracle Embedded Software to Promote Innovation on Mobile Computing Devices]]> Unitech, the third largest worldwide manufacturer of rugged PDAs, has signed license agreement with Oracle that offers Oracle Database Lite on its range of mobile computing devices including PA96x series, PA982, PA600, PA500, HT660 and RH767 devices, and Oracle Sensor Edge Mobile on the RFID enabled RH767. 
 

By adding Oracle's world-class enterprise technology to its increasingly popular range of devices, Unitech is enabling its channel partners to offer their customers the power of grid computing for their mobile workforce applications, thereby reducing the design and development cycle and the time to market for solutions.
 

Unitech's enhanced mobile devices will become an even more attractive and cost effective option for end users. This includes Mobile Manager remote device management that enables all devices to be administered from a single web based console. With remote identity management, the ability to restrict end users accessing and modifying data, and remote centralized software provisioning, an enterprise can run mobile applications on Unitech devices smoothly anytime, anywhere with minimal disruption.
 

In addition, remote devices can synchronize with Oracle databases regardless of the network quality and coverage. An advanced recovery system resumes synchronization from the last assigned checkpoint when a signal becomes available, so time is not lost replicating files.
 

The agreement has also enabled Unitech to create an end to end RFID solution by adding Oracle Sensor Edge Mobile to the RFID enabled terminal - RH767, creating a direct link to Oracle Sensor Edge Server. This makes RFID solutions an affordable reality for businesses by eliminating the need to roll out expensive new IT infrastructure to support RFID applications. For Unitech partners, this opens up new opportunities to propose competitive, cost effective RFID solutions with very short deployment timescales for customers that are already using Oracle technology.
 

Unitech is committed to adding value to its channel partners through its terminals. By adding Oracle's industry leading technology and applications on its mobile computing products, Unitech is helping to create more competitive solutions with a shorter time to market and improved integration and communication flexibility.

Interoperability with BizTalk Server, the most widely deployed business process server with over 7,000 users worldwide, enables Unitech to provide mobility applications that deliver a uniformed way to communicate with and manage RFID devices on the Microsoft platform. In addition, it is now possible for Unitech's RFID product range to leverage the BizTalk Server's event processing capabilities empowering field based workers to make better decisions through the delivery of more meaningful data.

"The enhanced capability provided by our integration with BizTalk Server will help our channel partners to provide solutions that in turn help their customers to increase their efficiency through real time visibility of their critical business processes, ensuring that they are one step ahead of the competition." said Judy Huang, Market Communication & Development Manager for Unitech. 

Unitech's recently announced RH767 allows businesses to be more flexible in their use of mobile technology with an integrated barcode scanner and a choice of HF or UHF RFID reader.  The 13.56 MHz HF model has a triple RFID reader supporting ISO 15693 and ISO 1443A/B.  The UHF model supports the latest EPC Gen 2 standard. With WLAN 802.11b/g supporting WPA, LEAP and CCX, and Bluetooth connectivity, the RH767 offers maximum flexibility for connectivity. The HF model also supports GPRS communication via the PCMCIA slot.

The HT630 is a fully RoHS compliant, affordable entry to mid level rugged portable data terminal. It is fully backwards compatible with the PT630D and shares the same accessories, which means that existing PT630D customers can immediately benefit from the latest technology without having to undergo an expensive swap out of legacy equipment. The HT630 offers substantial physical enhancements over its predecessor. It has a fast 80MHz processor, an integrated laser barcode scanner and offers different memory configuration up to 8.5MB of RAM.

Like the PT630D, everything about the HT630 is designed for simple operation, making it ideal for those with little or no IT experience. It fits into the featherweight category, weighing in at only 230g, and it has been ergonomically designed for comfortable single-handed operation. Despite its small size, the HT630 is rugged; withstanding multiple drops to concrete and its IP54 rating protects it from dust and moisture. A 27 character alphanumeric phosphorescent keypad aids use in poor lighting conditions and it takes less than 3 hours to fully charge the Lithium-ion battery pack for a full 12-hour shift of working.

The HT630 comes with JobGen Plus – a powerful Windows-based application generator with intuitive drag and drop, point and click style of programming that enables applications to be developed and deployed with little or no programming knowledge.

The HT630 is suitable for a variety of applications in field service and throughout the supply chain, including pick up and delivery, meter reading, retail inventory control and warehouse management.

Unitech commented: "The HT630 allows us to offer our existing PT630D users with a fully backward compatible device that enables them expand their applications without having to change their existing system. For new customers, the HT630 is ideal for entry to mid level applications that require a device that is easy to use. The inclusion of Unitech's JobGen Plus development tool also gives them the ability to develop their own applications, making it very cost effective to deploy."

About Unitech PA600
The PA600 is designed for mobile workers that need a powerful device that is small enough to fit into a shirt pocket. Designed for retail, healthcare, hospitality and field service applications, the PA600 weighs just 290 grams making it one of the lightest devices on the market.

For mobile applications the PA600 is one of the few rugged PDAs to offer a choice of both Windows Mobile 5.0 and Windows CE.NET 5.0, enabling a business to choose the most suitable operating system for integration with its existing systems.

The ergonomics of this new device have been built with the user in mind. Users will find that it fits naturally into the hand and works with them, not against them. It has fully integrated scan buttons, an easy to use keyboard, a colour screen for instant visibility, and both audible and visible good read confirmations improving productivity.

Cost of ownership is reduced with the PA600, as it is highly rugged. It has undergone extensive testing to ensure it is able to withstand the rigours of every day professional and industrial use, where consumer grade PDAs would fail. These include multiple drop tests, repetitive key pressing and dust and moisture ingress tests. The result is a unit that is guaranteed to withstand multiple 1.2m drops and has an IP54 rating.

Connectivity is provided by the integrated Bluetooth only or Bluetooth & 802.11b/g WLAN radios that are the standard options on both the Windows CE.Net 5.0 and Windows Mobile 5.0 models. The Windows Mobile 5.0 model also supports VOIP. RFID can be provided via the SD slot on both models, which can also be used for additional memory.

Unitech, comments "The PA600 is packed with options and functionality not readily available from other manufacturers. It offers maximum flexibility and is designed to last a full day, both in terms of battery life and user comfort. We are expecting this device to be widely adopted in healthcare, hospitality and retail market."
