Casio IT3000 review

The Microsoft Windows CE.Net operating system guarantees easy integration with existing solutions and the fast, economical, and future-proof implementation of newer and more efficient industry solutions. The Bluetooth and IrDA interfaces as well as the slots for PC Card and SD cards allow for various expansion possibilities and use in a WLAN or GPRS environment. The IT-3000 is extremely stable and resistant, making it the ideal companion for the tough industrial daily routine. It also features a high-speed thermal printer that prints receipts on paper at a speed of up to 28 lines per second. Where payments need to be made and receipts printed, the IT-3000 can leverage all its strengths. This means that the user can conveniently manage purchases, anywhere and anytime. The integrated magnetic card reader (M55E) reads ISO tracks 1, 2 (ISO/IEC 7811-2 2001). Data and images can be conveniently captured with the optional 2D image scanner. Signatures, entire labels, and images can be captured easily and very quickly thanks to a CMOS image scanner. The IT-3000's transflective color LCD display with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels offers maximum readability in all lighting conditions and allows data entry via the scratch-resistant touchscreen: signatures can be applied directly on the display or data can be entered by finger pressure. Excellent power management minimizes energy consumption and allows for long usage times, even with applications that make intensive use of the display.

Its weight of approximately 635g makes it pleasantly light. The body design of the IT-3000 combines a large touchscreen display with a slim and ergonomic shape. The elastic handle on the back of the device allows the mobile terminal to be held with one hand without any tension and ensures efficient, effortless work for several hours. The design is particularly appreciated by operators especially in the transportation, postal, and delivery services sectors. The IT-3000 withstands drops from 1.20 meters, is protected against dust and splashes with IP54 certification, and works without problems at temperatures from -20 degrees C to 50 degrees C. The IT-3000 is therefore perfectly suited for logistics services, mobile sales, service companies, ticketing, couriers, freight forwarders, and for business applications in the industry and commerce sector. Notes on Connections: For the integration of the most modern data transfer standards into efficient industry applications, Bluetooth offers unlimited possibilities. From data transfer to portable or network printers, to synchronizing the IT-3000 with a PC or using a Bluetooth modem to access the worldwide telephone network, all the way to full mobile communication through GPRS networks: extensive plug-and-play solutions are available for the integrated Bluetooth interface.
