Press Release Summary: Two Technologies, Inc.®, a leading manufacturer of rugged
hand held computers and terminals used in global applications, introduces the
HydrusT ultra-rugged and powerful hand held computer designed for long-term daily
operation in the harshest working conditions.

Press Release Body: With the world's largest battery capacity of 36 WATT-hours, the
Hydrus functions for over 40 hours, working overtime on various field applications.

IP67/IP68 rated for protection against dust and water, the Hydrus is ideal for
outdoor use in extreme environments on both land and sea. Double wall case
construction of GE XENOY® provides impervious sealing against environmental
conditions, with drop and shock protection covering internal components. The Hydrus
also offers a 320 x 240 Landscape QVGA display with integral touch screen as well as
"Super-Sunlight" readability, both outdoors and indoors.

A 5MP (4 MP processed) True-Camera-System captures color images and bar codes with
real auto focus and illumination. Users can capture then relay images and data from
virtually any remote field location and transmit them back to a main office or
centralized location.

A 55-key alpha numeric keypad with application-specific graphics plus an
eight-position joystick allows for individual or combined operations. Customized
keypads allow for intuitive, user-friendly operations and finger tip control.
Individual hard keys are uniquely suited for operation with gloved hands. Integrated
speaker and microphone enable use of the device for voice communications. Audio
Bridge Circuitry simplifies routing of audio signals to and from the speaker and
microphones to a variety of specified locations.

The Hydrus offers wireless computer communications and networking capabilities via
Bluetooth®, WLAN and 802.11. RS-232 and USB ports are available for adding
peripherals and accessories that extend the product's utility. The Hydrus is PACK
Ready, allowing expansion space for the addition of RFID, HID® RF/IR, and other
modules.

A powerful computer with 256 MB SDRAM and up to 32 GB of data storage, the Hydrus
uses Microsoft® Windows® CE .NET 5.0 operating system and a Marvell PXA270 processor
operating at 624 MHz. Units feature a dual smart battery system, with both
batteries having a charge circuit and "gas gauge" to monitor battery condition
during charging and discharging.

With its rugged design, extended battery life and customized keyboard, the Hydrus is
ideally suited for a range of outdoor applications in vertical markets where
durability, operational longevity as well as flexible operations are mandatory
including law enforcement (meter reading/traffic), agriculture, environmental (water
testing), security (crowd control), fleet management and even the hospitality
sectors. For more information on the Hydrus, go to the company web site at
