Motorola has announced the MC3090-Z, a remarkable RFID or Radio Frequency Identification Reader device. The handheld radio frequency reader could prove to be the lightest industrial product available in the markets, based roughly on the design of MC3000, an earlier Motorola release. The device is significant as it features the very first dual-axis antenna, which is a new innovation in the industry, which can make the device function easily in business set-ups like retail and healthcare.
Michael Liard, ABI’s RFID practice director, expected the device to do well in a market that was really in need of a device of its kind. He remarked that as the user activity grows around RFID, it is of significant importance that such handheld devices are being introduced, which will add to the interest in passive UHF readers as handheld devices. He believed that the flexibility the MC3090-Z could offer will help meet the new challenges and requirements in the market.
The features of the Motorola MC3090-Z include bar code scanning, orientation-sensitive data capturing through an omni-directional antenna, which can help businesses with operations like asset-tracking, cycle counting and other inventory related tasks. The device supports Gen 2 technology, and its durable design can enable it to sustain a drop from the height of four feet on surfaces as hard as concrete without damage. Furthermore, the device is IP54 sealed, the device can easily survive spills and allow you to wipe it clean if you’re working in a dusty environment.
Mike Poldino, the vice president and GM of RFID at Motorola, remarked during the launch that Motorola has lived up to its promise of delivering high-quality and accurate devices that catered to the market requirements, enabling more users to use the technology for the benefit of their businesses, and setting new standards of technological innovation in the industry.
The North American users should expect this brand new RFID reading device hitting their markets sometime in the first quarter of 2010, as announced by Motorola. They further announced that the device will become available around the world later in the year.

However there are strong indications that the device will be released for to the Chinese market as ‘XT701’.

Such details include the fact that the device will boast of a 3.7 in touch screen display, It will also have sport FM radio and brandishes a 5 Mega Pixel photo snapper (this is in sharp contrast to the widely spread rumour which showcased the device with a 8 Mega Pixel camera). The device is also said to run under Google’s Android 2.1 Operating System.
There are however no justifications for the rumour that the device will possess a HDM1 port but the fact that the device will be released to the Chinese market is nonetheless accurate. Motorola Sholes Tablet as widely called will be named XT701 in the Chinese market which hitherto reminds one of China Mobile’s Motorola Android device.
