DLI 8300 anyone?

Noticed last week in my local Tesco store (UK) a tiny rugged tablet installed on the top of a trolley used by their staff.
Because it's in a thick leather case all I can see is a screen, ribbed rubber corners and a row of buttons. It's connected by cable to a separate unit hidden in a metal housing fixed to the trolley.
Only thing I can find online that looks right is a DLI 8300.
Never heard of them myself but the spec's & options look interesting...

DLI 8300 Rugged Tablet - The most feature-rich rugged tablet available.

Anyone know anything more about these things?
If I ask in Tesco someone's gonna think I'm casing the joint
Happy Holidays!

 

Atom CPU? I had a netbook with one of those. I smashed it.

 

I've owned two netbooks: a Lenovo S10-2, and an HP.
One had an N450, the other a 455.
Both came with Win7 Starter, which is a stripped down POS version of 7 Home Basic.

Both ate batteries, stuttered on YouTube videos, and had painfully small keyboards.

There the reason I bought a Toughbook. I wanted a computer I can tote, throw in the trunk of my car, and not worry about.

FWIW, my 6 year old CF-29mk2 with it's 1.3GHz Centrino flies with 1.2GB of RAM on XP SP3 compared to the netbooks.

and you can use it in the rain, snow, heat, cold.

 

Only reason for postin' was curiosity only reason for curiosity was not bein' able to see the whole thing 'cause of the leather case only reason for lookin' in the first place was thinkin' it was some kind of Toughbook honest never ever even touched an Atom I SWEAR.

Er... what kind of processor does the CF-U1 have? Just curious.

 

U1 Essential has an Atom Z520 1.33GHz

U1 Ultra has an Atom Z530 1.6GHz

 

Dude,
I have no reservations about asking someone to let me see something. From the handheld computers at 711, to the ones used on stock carts at home depot, to cop cars (only when I'm not the one being pulled over ).

I get a lot of funny looks though....

 

DT Research also make tough tables have a look here

DT Research - Mobile POS Tablet

I have DT366 table and it tough but not as tough as my CF-18 or CF-19 in table mode.

 

Thanks for that Peewee!

The DT 372 looks more like what I saw in Tesco than the DLI 8300 but I hadn't found DT Research online.
Must have a bad copy of google.
Of course this won't be as tough as the 29 or 19 but will be a lot lighter for all-day hiking. Topo GPS and checking the occasional photo file is mostly what I'm thinking of using it for.
Usually I use 4x5 large format film. The equipment is heavy and I'm getting old so saving weight is a constant concern.
