Datalogic Mobile’s Elf™ Pre-licensed with Wavelink Avalanche Device Management Software

MIDVALE, UTAH — MAY 19, 2010 — Wavelink Corporation (www.wavelink.com) today announced that Datalogic Mobile is pre-licensing Wavelink® device management software on its next generation industrial PDA, Elf™. Wavelink Avalanche® is pre-loaded and pre-licensed on all shipping devices as it is with other Datalogic Mobile computers.

With the included software from Wavelink, Elf™ customers receive, at no additional cost, the leading software for centrally managing their devices. Elf™ will be among the first devices to support Wavelink Avalanche 5, which adds a web-based console, device location mapping, wireless wide area network (WWAN) enhancements and security compliance tools.

With Avalanche, administrators can centrally configure, deploy and manage their mobile devices and wireless infrastructure. The result is improved productivity of mobile workers, increased network security and a reduction of the total cost associated with owning and managing mobile devices and peripherals.

“We developed Elf™ for ease of use by providing incredible speed coupled with the latest technology for mobility, all packaged in one of the best ergonomic devices on the market, ” said Francesco Montanari, Datalogic Mobile vice president, Global Products & Services. “By also licensing Wavelink Avalanche on each device, we are making it simple for customers to deploy and manage their devices. With the scan-to-configure functionality on each device, a new device can literally be configured within minutes for immediate use.”

Datalogic Mobile’s Elf™ has a compact design for single-handed operation combined with the ruggedness necessary to meet the needs of applications in field service, field sales, delivery, retail and logistics. Elf™ is one of the first devices to run Microsoft Windows Mobile® 6.5. Datalogic patented Green Spot good read technology with both a laser barcode reader and 2D imager has also been integrated into the product. Elf™ incorporates an option to support HF RFID for reading and writing as well.

Wavelink president and CEO Lamar Van Wagenen said, “We enjoy a successful relationship with Datalogic Mobile that has helped both companies reach out to new customers. When a company purchases mobile devices, they want to get them configured and into the hands of their workers as soon as possible. With Wavelink Avalanche pre-licensed, customers are now ready to deploy and manage their devices right out of the box to increase productivity and efficiency.”
