The mobile computing division of DRS Technologies, DRS Tactical Systems, is prepping to release its next iteration of the Armor series of durable tablets, the Armor X10gx September 15. Keeping with DRS’ promise of devices that can survive even “explosive environments,” the 10.4 inch X10gx weighs in at 4.3 pounds and meets MIL-STD-810G, according to vice president and general manager for DRS Tactical Systems Mike Sarrica. Whatever that means, this thing will take a beating.
With an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 4GB RAM, and a 64GB SSD (expandable to 160GB) all inside, this tank of a tablet nearly blows my netbook out of the water (and mine isn’t even a year old). Adding to the allure of a system that could keep up with most of today’s frail netbooks and ultra portables, the X10gx can be supported by two wireless services: AT&T Wireless–good luck with that–and Gobi 2000 mobile broadband service.
To top it all off, this super-durable tablet comes with 802.11n wireless LAN connectivity and integrated GPS for even further connectivity. Want to be lost-proof on your next extreme vacation into the Amazon? Boom, X10gx. DRS has yet to announce a price.
