| Dell readies new PDA, Smartphone |
||
Dell Computer has revealed that the next generation of its Axim handheld will include both Wi-Fi and triband radios, signaling a new wave of mobile productivity. In addition, an executive at the company's headquarters here said Dell plans to develop a device based on Microsoft's Smartphone platform.
The next generation Axim will allow users to switch between Wi-Fi networks and CDMA or GSM networks. Due out in 2004, the device will likely support 802.11g, which offers backward compatibility with 802.11b and speeds of up to 31Mbps. The Axim will also include Bluetooth to permit synchronization with client devices, including notebooks, said Anthony Bonadero, Dell's director of wireless product marketing, during a set of exclusive briefings arranged for InfoWorld here this week. In addition to supporting Microsoft's PocketPC operating system, the next generation Axim will have a multiday battery life, Bonadero said. On the processor side, Dell will not attempt to reinvent the wheel. "We're not talking about a single chip solution which would be the kind of innovative thing if you were to mix Wi-Fi technology with GSM and CDMA radio technology on a single silicon chip," he said.
