The Skorpio X3 rugged mobile computer is particularly suitable for mobile commerce
solutions in the retail environment both on store shelves and in the stock room.

environments, multiple drops, strong shocks and repetitive tumbles.
The Skorpio X3 pistol grip version takes advantage of the best handle and trigger in
the warehouse industry. Compact size and light weight combine to offer excellent
balance, and superior handling.
Skorpio X3’s powerful processing efficiency derives from a dual processor
architecture composed of microprocessor XScale PXA310 @ 624 MHz and a Cortex-
M3, 32 bit @ 72 MHz. coprocessor Processing power combined with 256 MB RAM &
and 512 MB Flash running Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 make for the best
performance and flexibility in this market.
Skorpio X3™ offers the unique feature of integrated data capture technology
combined with “green spot” feedback (Datalogic patent), providing a ”good read”
green dot directly on the code, where the operator usually tends to be looking. Many
features work together to facilitate easier and faster reading, such as 1D laser and
2D imager bar code readers with Green Spot. An inclined scan engine to allows the
display to be seen while scanning bar codes, with no need to turn the wrist
awkwardly while scanning.
Skorpio X3 display is a TFT / Transflective color LCD, QVGA, with LED backlight and
integrated touch screen, 81 mm (3.2 in) diagonal which means it is the largest
standard resolution display (and the only one for the market today) in this class of
products.
Skorpio X3 wireless communication capabilities (Bluetooth®, IEEE 802.11a/b/g)
enable fast transactions and complete interaction with information systems including
the newest RF security protocols such as WPA™ and WPA2™. Moreover, Cisco
