Motion Computing Launches Motion LE1600

Motion Computing today unveiled their new LE1600 slate Tablet PC featuring a Pentium M processor 1.5GHz and 60GB hard drive.

The clipboard-sized Motion LE1600 Tablet PC weighs 3.1 pounds and features a slim, tapered design, about a quarter-pound lighter and a quarter-inch thinner than the Motion M1400. Motion’s new flagship product runs Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 and is built-to-order per customer specification.

The Motion LE1600 is the first slate tablet PC to ship with the latest generation of Intel Centrino mobile technology (formerly codenamed Sonoma), including the Low Voltage Intel Pentium M processor 1.5GHz, the Mobile Intel 915GMS Express Chipset, and the Intel PRO/Wireless 2200 BG Network Connection, providing enhanced performance, graphics processing, power management, and flexible WLAN capabilities for the mobile platform. In addition, the LE1600 includes 512MB of upgradeable 400MHz DDRII memory and a 30GB hard drive, upgradeable to 60GB. The hard drive is a shock-mounted 1.8″ design for enhanced durability.

Motion’s durable slate design has been extended to the LE1600. With a magnesium alloy lower housing and carbon fiber upper housing, the LE1600 achieves an optimal balance between durability and weight as well as improved wireless performance.
