General Dynamics has launched a rugged notebook or UMPC named Gobook VR2. It was due since their acquisition of Itronix.The product features 13.3-inch transflective screen, which is not a typical display, thanks to the Dynavue outdoor screen technology that GD-Itronix developed. This new technology uses polarizing techniques and a multi-layered coating to reduce sunlight reflection. The result is a better-contrast ratio. Images also appear brighter despite a NIT rating of only 500 (NIT ratings can go as high as 1,000 with outdoor screens). The benefits are obviously better contrast and brightness of the screen, resulting it is more viewable under the sun.
An Intel Core 2 Duo T7300 (2.0GHz) processor, 2GB of RAM, and Draft 802.11n support give you better performance on the scale. It comes standard with an 80GB hard drive and a WWAN module that will let you fit either an EVDO or HSDPA cellular modem. It has a GPS antenna built in and a stylus for use with the touch screen functions. Retail price for the VR-2 will start at $3,500.
