Symbol MC70
PCPro has a review of the Symbol MC70 and finds the PDA to be rugged and built to endure some hard knocks: “The MC70 introduces the concept of the EDA (enterprise digital assistant), and is the opposite to the average PDA. First, it isn’t particularly pretty and, second, it’s built like a breeze block. Naturally, it’s quite heavy, with the wireless version tipping the scales at 336g, although this isn’t too high a price to pay for its invulnerability. And super-tough it is too, as the unit is built to withstand a 5ft drop onto solid concrete … after literally kicking it round the lab a few times and dropping it directly onto a solid floor, we were relieved to see it still functioning perfectly and without a mark on it.”
