Motorola Announces Enterprise Smartphone
Motorola late last week announced a surprisingly sleek looking smartphone designed for the Enterprise, the ES4000 Enterprise Digital Assistant (EDA).
"Motorola recognizes that mobile teams are the lifeblood of an organization, and empowering these teams with unmatched features and functionality to eliminate road blocks in the field is critical to an organization," said Gene Delaney, president, Motorola Enterprise Mobility Solutions. "The new ES400 EDA combines the best features of mobility, communications and task functionality without compromising performance or design – offering mobile workforces the ability to take action and capture information with a single click – in front of the customer where it counts most."
Featuring a 3-inch VGA screen and full QWERTY keyboard, the ES4000 comes built around Microsoft's Windows Mobile 6.5 platform. Powering the device is an ARM 11 processor (MSM 7627) clocked at 600MHz, along with 256MB of memory and 1GB of internal Flash storage (upgradeable to 32GV via microSD card slot).
Motorola said it will ship the ES4000 later this year for an as-yet undetermined price.
