Trimble adds AA battery option to rugged handhelds

NomadbatterypackIf you’ve got a few spare AA batteries on hand, you can now use them with the rugged Nomad handheld offered by Trimble. You’ll also need the new $90 AA Battery Module that takes the place of your standard rechargeable battery, but this is a nice option for a Windows Mobile powered device. Two standard 1.5V batteries get you four hours of use, which may or may not get you through a full work day depending on how much you need the device. Still, a nice convenience for when you’re out in the field… just don’t forget some AAs for your pocket!
