Getac launches rugged notebook with 1200 Nits sunlight readable technology.
GETAC has unveiled details of its new and fully rugged B300 notebook computer. Weighing under eight pounds, the magnesium alloy-bodied B300 can be ordered with a sunlight-viewable 13.3-inch XGA touch screen display that sets new standards in screen brightness. While the base display already has a strong 500 nit backlight (commercial notebooks generally have backlights of less than 200 nits), the optional display delivers a stunning 1200 nits. In addition, there is a "blackout mode" that instantly turns off all tell-tale lights in potentially dangerous situations. Further, customers may order an optional night-vision mode with software/sensor driven brightness adjustment in order to meet MIL-STD-3009. -- Posted Tuesday, February 26, 2008 by chb
