Getac, known for its ruggadized computer solutions, has announced its convertible, multitouch tablet PC made of magnesium alloy.Built to perform in a number harsh environments, the Getac V200 is taking hits and making guarantees.
This PC is powered by Intel’s Core i7-620LM processor, running 2GHZ to 2.8GHZ with Turbo Boost. The V200 comes standard with a shock mounted, 320GB hard drive–you can swap it out for an 80GB solid state drive upon configuration. The multitouch is resistive, rather than touch sentitive, meaning you can use it with your gloves on.
The screen measures 12.1-inches and weighs less than 6 pounds. The design supports a full-size keyboard as well as 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 2.1 connectivity, and 10/100/1000 Giga LAN.

Getac’s V200 also features the company’s LifeSupport battery swapping system that allows you to swap batteries in the field without shutting the system down. Simply enter into standby mode and you will have 2 minutes to swap batteries without closing any applications or programs. The V200 is IP65 compliant for resilience to dust, vibration, water, and temperatures as low as -20 degrees centigrade.
