Tablet PC / UMPC - Rugged Computer Survives Car Wash!

The MobileDemand xTablet rugged Tablet PC / UMPC survives going through a car wash FIVE times!

We had the cleanest car in Las Vegas while visiting the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas in early January, 2008. We strapped the Tablet PC onto the roof of our rental car with bungee cords, both face down to view the screen through the sun roof, and face up with a wrapped towel underneath to prop the tablet up.

The same tablet made it through the entire wash cycle a total of five times! It withstood the flapping "towels", soap, rinse, and even the high pressure blow driers!

The xTablet rugged Tablet PC can withstand harsh environments when used as a work "tool" for mobile workforces. Over 2,000 of the xTablet rugged Tablet PCs are used and mounted in beer trucks across America! Standard grade notebooks, laptops, UMPCs and Tablet PCs just simply cannot stand up to the rigors that mobile workers go through like the MobileDemand xTablet!

Wow, I totally wish I could clean my notebook screen like that sometimes.

What is the cost of one of these systems?
