For anyone interested in buying ArcPad, the new version 8.0 is coming out soon. If you buy version 7.1.1, you will receive a free copy of 8.0 and it is much less expensive than version 8.0. You can't wait until 8.0 releases, as 7.1.1 will be pulled from sale.

I'm an ESRI business partner and I will be receiving a copy of the new ArcPad 8.0 very soon. As soon as it arrives, I'll list it's new features.

New Blog From Resource Supply

Hi everyone,

My new blog will include news about GPS, laser rangefinders, rugged pocket PCs, and much more.

I just had a chance to briefly review the new Yuma Tablet PC by Tripod Data Systems. It has a beautiful screen with touch screen capability. Weight is a bit more than most Pocket PC's, although the big screen will more than make up for that. Screen resolution is awesome.

The Yuma runs Windows Vista and the reported battery life is very good. I can't remember the exact figure, but it's way more than most tablet PCs. I'll report on more of the Yuma's features in a future blog.

Have Fun!

Jon
