Algiz 10 takes on nature - wins

by Julian Prokaza on Wednesday 09 July 2008 Comment

Algiz 10Despite sounding like a Siberian correctional facility, the Agliz 10 is actually a ruggedised tablet PC designed to laugh in the face of hazards that would flatten lesser laptops.

The XP powered handheld can survive in temperatures as low as minus 20 degrees Celsius, to plus 60 degrees - just your average July day in the UK, then.

Tested to military standards (that's MIL-STD-810F, for those who are interested) it can withstand dust, water and '26 drops from 3ft', which makes us wonder what happens on the 27th plummet. Click through for the full specs:

10.4" XGA, 1024x768 pixels, resistive colour TFT touchscreen
1.2 GHz Intel Core Duo Yonah ULV Processor
80 GB shock-mounted hard drive
1GB or 2GB SDRAM
Windows XP Tablet PC SP2 Edition
Integrated 802.11a/b/g
Integrated Bluetooth EDR 2.0, Class I
Optional PC card: GPRS/EDGE/UMTS 
Nine-cell (7800 mAh) Li-ion battery
Up to seven hours run time
