In brief: Wavelink to release mobile terminal emulation software

Wavelink this week plans to release Version 6.0 of its mobile terminal emulation software, which now includes the Wavelink Industrial Web Browser. The IWB is a Windows plug-in for Internet Explorer that adds a range of features for mobile computing. It has interfaces with bar code reader, magnetic stripe readers and other peripherals, and a feature that suspends the application when it's out of range of a wireless access point. Using a single button, handheld users can toggle between Web applications and conventional terminal emulation screens. Wavelink TE 6.0, which is expected to ship at the end of July, is priced at $199; the Industrial Web Browser costs $89.
