The Enterprise Mobility business from Motorola Inc. has announced the new VC6096 in-vehicle/fixed-mount mobile computer. The VC6096 in-vehicle/fixed mount mobile computer enables the collection of business-essential data — including mileage, location, driver performance, and vehicle metrics such as hours of service and arrival and departure times. With integrated GPS, the VC6096 provides the asset visibility needed to support real-time location-based applications from directions for drivers to fleet location for dispatchers. By providing mobile workers with simultaneous voice and data connections via 3.5G WAN connectivity on the GSM network, enterprises can now realize increased productivity and enhanced customer service as a result of route optimization — reducing the number of miles traveled while helping to ensure customers receive deliveries on schedule.

The VC6096 vehicle/fixed-mount mobile computer is expected to be available in the fourth quarter of 2008.
