Handheld Devices Hardware
A mobile device (also known as converged device, handheld device, handheld computer, "Palmtop" or simply handheld) is a pocket-sized computing device, typically comprising a small visual display screen for user output and a miniature keyboard or touch screen for user input. In the case of the personal digital assistant (PDA) the input and output are combined into a touch-screen interface.
The key to the hand-held is its portability. Great for field trips, home use, and anything requiring quick information access and recording, these devices can be used without the hassle of heavier technology. |
