Motion Computing J3500 as a mobile mixing desk

Apr

2012

Since Motion Computing are based in Austin Texas it’s probably not much of a surprise that a Texas Swing band is using the J3500 as a mixing desk. Austin is renowned for its music scene after all.

The following video interview with Jim Finney, road manager for Asleep at the Wheel will give you an insight into a couple of things that make Windows 7 tablets like the Motion J3500 perfect for the job.

  1. They can run your existing windows programs – not just dumbed down fat finger oriented touch programs.
     
  2. You can use those programs comfortably with the Active Digitizer Pen technology as found on the Motion J3500
  3. You can work inside, outside and anywhere thanks to the slate form factor, brilliant screen technology and ruggedness of the J3500.

Check out the video below!

Motion Computing J3500 and F5v get an upgrade

Nov

2011

Motion Computing – makers the world’s most powerful slate Tablet computers – recently gave their F5v and J3500 tablets an upgrade. We consider the F5v and J3500 to be the computing equivalent to the Aussie ute. In fact, they are used in many of the same places.

Motion F5v Installed in Ute

The Intel Core i7 versions of the J3500 and F5v went from the i7-640UM 1.2Ghz processor up to the i7-680UM processor at 1.46Ghz. The core i5 version also got a bump.

Whilst the low power Intel Core i7 processor in the F5v and J3500 is still the last generation “Arrandale” chip, it is still between four to ten times more powerful than the Intel Atom based processors found in many rugged Tablet PCs depending on the test performed.

Of course you can’t beat an Intel Atom based tablet for battery life, but there are several reasons that sales of F5v and J3500 with Intel Core i7 have increased at pace with the introduction of the Motion Computing CL900:

  • 4-10 Times more powerful than Intel Atom
  • Up to 8Gb of RAM
  • Desktop replacement power

Whilst the CL900 is fantastic for basic computing tasks like field data collection into web forms, PDF files or Microsoft Excel, it cannot match the performance of the F5v or J3500 for people who need a go-anywhere mobile office.

Judging by the number F5v and J3500s going out with 8Gb RAM on board, a surprising number of people do need brute computing power in the field.

The Motion J3500 also gets a bump up to the faster Gobi 3000 mobile broadband chip with GPS.

Hugh McLeod is a cartoonist who uses a Motion Computing J3500 tablet PC with its Wacom Active Digitizer Pen for drawing and sketching.

Earlier this year Hugh presented for Intel at CES2011 with his J3500:

Why would you use the J3500 for drawing as a digital artist?

  • J3500 allows you to work anywhere! – Indoors, outdoor, on the bus, train or plane –draw wherever creativity strikes you
  • Wacom Active Digitizer Pen – There is simply no equivalent PC drawing experience on a mobile device
  • Intel Core i7 Processor in an ultra-portable slate – It is the fastest slate Tablet PC on the market.

The new motion computing J3500 has been a big hit with customers already. The addition of a capacitive multi-touch screen option (includes the Wacom Active Digitiser Pen) and the Intel Core i7 processor has made the J3500 one of the most compelling tablets on the market for tablet users.

Motion J3500 is perfectly designed for touch

Jun

Our own Brett Gilbertson wrote an article for www.gottabemobile.com this week that discusses good hardware and software design for touch screen PCs. The newly released Motion J3500 is a great example of the best hardware design for touch.

The simple key to improving the touch experience is that the touch screen should not be recessed into surrounding plastic bezel.

As you can see in the picture below, the exceptional Hydis AFFS+ screen on the J3500 sits flush with the bezel. That makes it easy for your fat fingers to get into the corners of the screen (to close and minimize windows) thereby eliminating one of the most frustrating aspects at Windows and touch.

It also helps with the Wacom Active digitizer pen too!

Motion Computing J3500Last week Motion released the J3500, an excellent revamp of the Motion J3400. We now have a Motion J3500 product page on our website with some more details for you.

We have been using a combination touch and digitizer on our Fujitsu Tablet PCs for a while now, and the announcement or the Wacom multi-touch capacitive touch screen on the J3500 fills a hole in previous models.

Some of the applications that you might Motion Computing J3500 for healthfind for a combination touch and digitizer tablet are:

  • Point of sale (POS)
  • Music recording
  • Simple field data collection
  • Navigation.

Touch adds a level of speed and simplicity for simple tasks like navigating and repetitive data entry (such as Point of Sale).

On the other hand, the active digitizer pen is essential for note taking, fast handwriting recognition and accurate input – tasks such as writing, emailing, drawing, sketching and plan measurement.

In the last 2 years Motion Computing has really run ahead in the Tablet PC field by focusing on the core market for Tablets – field workers. This includes industries like mining, construction, engineering, field sales, healthcare, surveying and inspections.

Local, federal and state government departments are have heavily adopted both of the Motion Computing products for field work. In many cases the are replacing old style bulky and heavy ruggedized solutions with the new sleek Motion products.

Both the Motion J3500 and the Motion F5v are exceptional products for anyone who works on the road, in the car or on site. They generally stand out in the market for a few reasons:

  • Motion Computing J3500 with touchDesktop replacement power – Intel® Core™ i7 and i5 with vPro™
  • A super tough package – Both the J3500 and F5v conform to the US Military MIL810G standard and are IP rated. Both sport Corning Gorilla Glass which is five times stronger than any other Tablet PC screen.
  • Best outdoor display available – The Motion Hydis AFFS+ display uses smart technology, not just screen brightness to achieve perfect outdoor viewing and perfect 180 degree viewing angles.
  • 3 year Australian warranty – When things go wrong, everything on these machines can be fixed or replaced locally
  • Tough but not heavy - Both weigh around 1.6kg (with one battery on board)

As an independent Tablet PC reseller (and we have dozens of Tablet PCs at our disposal) we find the Motion Tablet PCs very hard to beat in many applications.
