GETAC Weighs in with E100 Fully Rugged Tablet PC for Field and Customer Service Applications

At Only 3 Pounds, GETAC's E100 is the New Lightweight Leader,
Offering Popular Rugged Features at a Competitive Price
TAMPA, Fla.--(Business Wire)--GETAC Inc., a leading innovator and manufacturer of Rugged
computers that meet the demands of field-based applications, today
announces the addition of the ultra-lightweight but Fully Rugged GETAC
E100 slate-style tablet PC to its growing roster of versatile Rugged
mobile computing solutions. The E100 will be unveiled during the
DistribuTECH 2008 Conference & Exhibition at the Tampa Convention
Center (Booth #1938), and will be commercially available beginning in
March 2008.

Weighing in at 3 pounds - making it the lightest Rugged tablet PC
on the market - the versatile, easy-to-maneuver E100 is designed with
field and customer service applications in mind. Despite its trim look
and feel, the GETAC E100 is every bit as tough as the heavyweights: It
meets MIL-STD-810F and IP54 standards for durability and protection
against dirt, dust, water, motion, vibration, temperature and other
factors that would severely damage or disable a commercial-grade PC.

The E100 offers workers in the field an 8.4-inch TFT SVGA
transmissive display with integrated touch screen panel. Optional
features include an Ultra-Bright sunlight-readable display and 800 Nit
backlit LCD screen that delivers astonishing readability that is
comparable to larger-screen models. GETAC also offers an array of
expandable "mission boxes" designed for customized market applications
that use RFID, barcode and magnetic strip readers or digital cameras.

"The E100 sets a new standard in lightweight Rugged mobility at a
competitive price that makes it attractive for deployment to an entire
field-based workforce," said Jim Rimay, vice president of Sales &
Marketing at GETAC. "It fills a tremendous void in the Rugged
marketplace for a 8.4-inch slate tablet that is lightweight and
balances on the palm of your hand, is easy to read even in the
brightest sunlight, has the power and extended battery life to operate
for long periods of time, and can be customized to meet a wide range
of field and customer service applications."

The E100 is powered by an Intel(R) Stealey 512KB L2 cache
processor that operates at 800MHz and offers up to five hours of
battery life. The E100 includes 512MB DDRII DRAM upgradeable to 1GB
and a 60/80/100GB shock-resistant HDD, all contained in a watertight
Fully Rugged magnesium alloy case that is vibration and drop-shock
resistant. The E100 includes 802.11b/g wireless LAN and Bluetooth 2.0
connectivity as standard features; EV-DO and GPRS/EDGE networks and
integrated GPS are available as options.

The GETAC E100 Fully Rugged slate tablet PC also includes a number
of security features - all standard - including smart card reader,
Kensington lock and TPM v1.2.

The GETAC E100 will be available through GETAC authorized
resellers. Please visit www.getac.com for more information.
