Take business productivity to new heights with the HP ElitePad 1000 from distributor Drive Control Corporation (DCC). This elegant and sleek device offers superior performance and flexibility in a lightweight, portable form factor that is more than just a tablet – it is a complete business solution. Designed with the needs of the corporate user in mind and featuring leading manageability, security and support, the HP ElitePad 1000 will transform any workforce.
“Tablets are often seen as a consumer-focused device without much real application in the business space. HP is redefining this perception with the ElitePad 1000, built for business and designed to integrate securely into a corporate network.
Measuring just 9.2mm in thickness, it is one of the thinnest Microsoft Windows 8.1 tablets in the industry, and it weighs less than 700g, making it easy to carry around wherever business takes you. Along with all of the features one would expect from a tablet, the HP ElitePad 1000 offers powerful productivity, leading security and easy IT integration,” says Francois van Wijk, HP PSG Business Unit Manager at DCC.
Featuring a Quad Core 1.6 Gigahertz (GHz) Intel Atom processor, 4 Gigabytes (GB) memory, integrated Intel High Definition (HD) graphics and 64-bit Windows 8.1 Operating System (OS), the ElitePad 1000 delivers all of the power the business user needs, along with a familiar interface.
A 10.1-inch WUXGA wide viewing angle, outdoor visible multi-touch screen ensures productivity in any location, with crystal clear display no matter the lighting conditions. Two integrated webcams, a front facing 2.1 megapixel and rear facing 8 megapixel with LED flash, allow users to take great photographs, and videoconference on the move.
A two-cell HP Long Life battery delivers up to 30 working hours for extended productivity on the go, and an optional docking station lets you hot dock at your desk for added convenience. A host of additional productivity options are available to customise your ElitePad experience to suit your needs. These include the HP ElitePad Expansion Jacket, HP ElitePad Expansion Jacket with Battery, HP ElitePad Docking Station, HP ElitePad Rugged Case, HP External Optical Drive, HP ElitePad Security Jacket, HP ElitePad Security Jacket with Smart Card Reader and Fingerprint Reader, the HP ElitePad Productivity Jacket and many more.
“The HP ElitePad 1000 allows business users to work the way that suits them best, with a number of optional accessories as well as a choice of input methods, including touch, pen and voice-based.
It can also be easily incorporated into an organisation’s IT environment, with HP Custom Integration Services offering enterprise-class setup. Security includes HP Basic Input / Output System (BIOS) Protection for enhanced protection against virus attacks to the BIOS and other security threats, assisting to prevent data loss and downtime.
HP Device Access Manager with Just in Time Authentication prevents data from being copied to USB devices without permission, while optional solutions from HP, LANDesk and Microsoft help simplify workloads. The ElitePad 1000 is the perfect tablet for the serious business user,” concludes van Wijk.
The HP ElitePad 1000 will be available in July 2014 from selected resellers and leading retailers for a recommended retail price from R11 000.00 including VAT.
