Yes, I still have a Handspring Visor form a work project. We used a cell phone case (they actually sold us the shell) to make a EEG monitor to ensure your were “out” during surgery.

A riotous four-day bash at a Jamaican beach hotel, skinny dipping, and how Meghan gave illegal joints to guests at her first wedding: What really happened at ceremony that couldn’t have been more different to THAT marriage ceremony with Prince Harry 

Its vision of romantic encounters with aliens and plagues of tribbles may not have come to pass just yet, but Star Trek has proved surprisingly accurate in predicting the future in other ways.

The frame encompassing that, complete with headphone jack and USB Type-C port, is built of thick rubbery polycarbonates and plastics for added durability and only available in one color – Space Gray with red accents. That aids with the handset’s IP6G ruggedization rating. A programmable ‘PTT’ button is also built along the right-hand edge just below the power button and just opposite the volume buttons. A lanyard slot is built into the lower-back portion of the Atom for additional security against misplacing the tiny device. The Atom’s charging port is used both for powering up the 2000mAh battery and for OTG functionality while the headphone jack doubles as a receiver for FM radio. A single speaker can be found on the rear panel. Unihertz sets the price for this mid-range device at just $259.

The Toughbook FZ-L1, on the other hand, is a sturdy and durable Android tablet that is closer to what its moniker represents. It has been designed to meet the MIL-STD-810G standard, just like its smaller brother, it can survive drops up to 5 feet, and is IP67 dust and water-resistant.

I just have to wonder if the design of the hinge and the display connection (ribbon cable) will hold up batter than they did with Psion 5, which was rather notorious for those being the weakest links in terms of hardware.

The system also has enough flexibility to allow for adjustments, the company says. UPSNav uses the UPS data infrastructure and proprietary ORION maps, but also allows drivers and other UPS staff to quickly correct or update maps if a delivery or pickup point changes.

On the connectivity side of the equation, things are much more solid. All of the built-in radios perform as well as can be expected but it is worth pointing out that there’s no NFC connectivity with this smartphone. On the other hand, we also weren’t able to test a 2G, 3G, or 4G connection due to incompatibility with our test carrier in the US. The quality of the earpiece and speakerphone was tested using a call over Wi-Fi. Both audio devices and the microphone performed as well as nearly any other smartphone in any price bracket. But prospective buyers will want to check the bands below to ensure compatibility with their service provider before making a purchase.

To make it less like a slab of metal, plastic and glass, the designers bevelled the edges so that should it fall on a corner the impact is distributed. The corners, back and ends are constructed from glass-reinforced plastic, contrasting with metal sides, reinforcing the perception that the P8 can handle some abuse without immediately failing.
