Toughpad tablets are MIL-STD-810G tested for drops, fluid ingress and temperature to assure they deliver reliable performance under circumstances that render typical tablets non-operational. Devices feature daylight viewable screens, user-replaceable or serviceable batteries, a stylus for signature capture and handwriting (on the FZ-G1 and FZ-A1 with 3rd party apps), and multiple options for peripheral connectivity.
The 10” Windows 8 Pro-based Toughpad FZ-G1 will be available in late Spring. The 7” Android-powered Toughpad JT-B1 will ship in March. The 10” Android-powered Toughpad FZ-A1 is now shipping. All Toughpad tablets can be purchased through authorized Panasonic resellers. If you need a tablet that will survive anything, you should have a look at these ones.
