Learn about the role of the SwitchBack™ in this amazing collaboration

"[The SwitchBack™] rugged handheld is a big step forward for the UMPC...at the launch of Origami, the idea [of the UMPC] was a newborn concept, with its creators essentially looking at it as a consumer product. Things have evolved since then and several emerging players are looking beyond the consumer market and into industry applications. The rugged UMPC has great potential for success in niche vertical markets."

-David Daoud, lead analyst, IDC

"We've felt from the start that the UMPC platform was uniquely suited for rugged applications and have been waiting for such an implementation. If Black Diamond can deliver on its ambitious plans, this may well set a new trend in rugged mobile computing."

-Conrad Blickenstorfer, editor-in-chief, Pen Computing

"The SwitchBack™ PC's intrinsic modular design allows for a tremendous amount of flexibility and efficiency. Unlike other rugged computers on the market today, the SwitchBack™ is an open-system and offers vertical market customers a cost-efficient model for buying, managing and maintaining their IT assets, depending on their custom applications and budget."
