Memphis police department rolls out 1,200 REDFLY Mobile Companions
The REDFLY Mobile Companion is a very handy device for those who need a bigger keyboard and display for their Windows Mobile devices. Last year after I posted my review I received a call from a retired police officer who thought these would make a great solution for field officers. Celio Corp issued a press release announcing that the Memphis police department has ordered 1,200 REDFLY devices to deploy to officers in the field.
These officers have been using Windows Mobile devices to access needed sites and their field reporting suite and database. With the REDFLY they are now able to improve the quality of their report narratives with the larger display and keyboard. The REDFLY is a very durable device that is easy to roll out for users like this who are already using Windows Mobile devices to operate and access their data.
