How fast a CPU (Processor)?
CPU (processor) speed has a dramatic effect on
handheld processing, especially if optional features, such as
inventory tracking, are turned on.
The faster CPU's
process data so much faster that we have been able to add many new
features to our software that use this additional 'horsepower'. |

 Bluetooth
printing results in quick wireless
printing. For most situations where sales orders are
printed, we recommend a handheld and printer with bluetooth
capabilities, so that a cable does not have to be connected to the
handheld 20-40 times a day.
Just about any parallel or USB printer can
become a wireless bluetooth printer by adding a bluetooth
adapter. For details, see our
mobile printers page.

Bar Coding?
For applications requiring bar code scanning, we recommend combining
a handheld with an expansion slot with the
Socket In-Hand Scan card listed at our
accessories page.
How much memory?
Current handhelds contain much more memory
than is normally needed by ALO software programs and data.
ALO programs use a small amount of memory - less than one megabyte.
While dependent upon how much data is loaded and stored, data files
(such as customers, items, orders, sales history, and signatures)
usually take less than a few megabyte of memory. |
