Enhancements Bring Application Flexibility to Honeywell’s Partner Network

Honeywell (NYSE: HON) announced it will now offer the Microsoft® Windows® Embedded Handheld 6.5 operating system for the Dolphin® 6100 and 6500 mobile computers, providing resellers, customers and other partners with one common platform for mobile device application development. Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 was designed specifically to power mobile devices that run critical enterprise business applications, such as those in retail, supply chain and other light-industrial environments.

For Honeywell’s Dolphin 6100 and 6500, Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 will bring efficient and secure data input capabilities as well as improved connectivity options, boosting productivity by enabling users to capture, access, and act on business-critical information in real-time. With the addition of Handheld 6.5, Honeywell offers its customers more options, as it will also continue to support Windows CE 5.0, an architectural platform that includes robust developer tools and a real-time operating system.

“Honeywell has maintained its leadership position within the mobile computing space by listening to our customers and partners and continually working with industry leaders like Microsoft Windows Embedded to deliver the most advanced technologies available,” said Greg Payne, director of mobility systems, Honeywell Scanning & Mobility. “Our customers asked for portability in our next operating system platform and we knew Windows Embedded would deliver.
