In addition to modems and printers, a large number of accessories, such as bar code scanners and ruggedized casing. can be used to adapt handhelds to specific requirements at your company.
 

Expansion Slot Memory Card


ALO software can automatically backup sales orders and bitmap signature images to a Secure Digital (SD) card in the handheld expansion slot.   SD cards are available from most office supply stores and manufacturers.



Just about any USB or parallel printer can become a wireless bluetooth printer by using a parallel or USB port bluetooth adapter such as an HP bt1300.  Combined with a bluetooth enabled handheld unit (such as the Tungsten T5 or E2) sales orders can be printed wirelessly.

 Aluminum Hard Case


Aluminum hard cases are offered for specific handheld models from several manufacturers, including PalmOne and Rhinoskin.

Ruggedized Casing



Otterbox makes ruggedized cases to enclose handhelds. The $100 Armor 1900 and Armor 3600 models are "crushproof, waterproof, dustproof, airtight, and guaranteed for life".

Expansion Slot Barcode Scanner



Using a Symbol Technologies scanner, the Socket Inhand Scan Card ($269) can be inserted into the expansion slot to scan item and/or customer barcodes from ALO Order Entry.
