It comes loaded with Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), Citrix IC Client and Microsoft Internet Explorer with the Sun Microsystems Java Runtime Environment. Because thin client computers do notstore data locally like traditional PCs, these applications connect the device to software managed and data stored on an organization’s network.
The Motion M1400TC Tablet Client uses the existing Motion M1400 slate tablet PC chassis and has many of the same features including its award-winning wide viewing angle display and an integrated fingerprint reader. The tablet’s traditional hard drive is replaced with 512MB solid-state flash storage, allowing storage only of the operating system and essential applications.
“We listen to our customers, and used our reliable, secure and familiar tablet design to give them an ultramobile thin client computer,” said Peter Hunt, Motion’s vice president of value-added peripherals. “Depending on their network security requirements, we anticipate that customers will purchase the M1400TC as well as the M1400 tablet PC so we offer the benefit of shared mobile peripherals.”
