Tadpole-Cartesia
Tadpole-Cartesia, a division of Tadpole Technology Plc, is a pioneer of Java-based field information systems for the world’s utility, telecommunications and public service industries. Its enterprise-wide field information system Cartesia brings the full advantages of corporate workflow to the mobile environment. The heart of Tadpole’s Cartesia field information system is its Enterprise Field Server (EFS) to coordinate and manage information workflow to and from the field. I recently had the pleasure of getting a first hand look at the J-Slate, Tadpole's Reliable, Rugged, Powerful and Inexpensive Mobile Computing device.

The J-Slate is the first in a new breed of Java field net device. The product is designed to be easy to use and can withstand the rugged treatment commononly experienced in field conditions. It is a Java net device designed to run Java applications either standalone or via a web browser. Outstanding features include long battery life, wireless connectivity, and bright colour display.

The J-Slate responds to problems that cannot be solved using conventional wireless handheld devices. Clients currently using J-slates for their field data capture projects include:

  • Copenhagen Water (Denmark)
  • Durham County Council (UK)
  • Electricite de Portugal (Portugal)
  • Lone Star Gas (USA)
  • Ordnance Survey (UK)
  • Scottish Hydro-Electric plc (UK)
  • Southern New England Telephone Company (USA)
  • West of Scotland Water (UK)
  • Sierra Pacific Power Company
