[Taipei, May 31st]--EPoX will introduce the first Bluetooth printer adapter (BT-PA04A) in Computex in June, which supports direct photo printing of Bluetooth mobile phones and PDA, and supports many brands of market-selling printers. Through this Bluetooth printer adapter, customers after taking photos by mobile phones or PDA can use its built-in Bluetooth function to wirelessly transmit photos to BT-PA04A, and then print photos by connected color printers. Using this kind of adapter, customers from now on can directly print photos by wireless transmission method in the office or at home. There is no need to install any extra application programs or annoying transmission lines, you can truly enjoy the convenient service of immediate photo printing.<br><br>

The estimated introducing date for BT-PA04A is the end of June, and it has already accepted domestic and foreign distribution orders at present. BT-PA04A is a USB Bluetooth printer adapter. It uses the latest chipset specially designed for Bluetooth printers, and it conforms to the standard of Bluetooth V1.1. Besides built-in profiles commonly used by printers such as HCRP (Hardcopy Cable Replacement Profile), OPP (Object Push Profile), and SPP (Serial Port Profile), it also supports BIP (Basic Imaging Profile). Moreover, it has built-in DSP (Digital Signal Processor), which can handle printing jobs of mobile devices (such as mobile phones, PDA, etc.), and achieve the best image printing effect. BT-PA04A can support various major brands of printers on market, such as HP, Epson and Canon, which make it easier to use and fully conform to the requirement of immediate usage.
<br><br>
In addition, EPoX will also exhibit new Bluetooth Audio Products, including Bluetooth headset that supports double profiles and Bluetooth stereo audio adapter. New Bluetooth headset (BT-HS02) possesses excellent compatibility. It can support all of Bluetooth mobile phones at the current market, and has advantages of easy matching procedures and outstanding voice quality. Its last-generation Bluetooth headset (BT-HS01) has been evaluated by Germany’s famous PC Praxis magazine as possessing the best ergonomic design. The new headset also uses an arc-shaped ear hanging design, which provides the most comfortable feel for customers. It is light with a total weight of only 19g, which is quite suitable for business people with large communication volume. It can be worn long term, and you will not feel irritated. As for Bluetooth Stereo Audio Adapter, it adopts the stereo profile in the 1.2 version of SIG standard. It adopts mini-adapter design on the two ends of Audio in/out, which allows customers to freely connect any sound output device (such as computer, CD player, DVD, MP3, and gamebox) at home or in the office. Moreover, it can connect speakers or earphones on output terminals according to individual demands, then you can enjoy mobile music and audio entertainment within a 10-meter diameter scope, and do not need to be restricted by limited length of sound cables.<br><br>

EPoX’s Bluetooth products also include USB Adapter, Keyboard, Mouse, Presenter, Parallel Port Printer Adapter, and USB Adapter with Flash memory. Its product strategy is to satisfy full-dimensional business application demands using complete PC ancillary application products. Furthermore, the ability advantages of EPoX’s R&D group on compatibility and RF tuning can make customers enjoy longer transmission distance and a more complete individual Bluetooth network application framework.

Furthermore, there are numerous value-add functions as well as CF, 4 COM, SATA and so on.<br><br>

IP-4MTS2B, the hot sale model with all-in-one function, supports Pentium M with Intel 855GME chipset, renowned model of low power, highly integrated processor modules, the world's new generation Pentium® M Embedded single board computer in the compact 5.25” format for the most demanding computing performance requirements. It also can be applied in various industry fields such as game machine, industrial control, and automation application as well as telecommunication industry.<br><br>

Furthermore, other two industrial products of IP-4MTP2G and IP-4MTI2H are designed by different form factors. IP-4MTP2G is based on full size PICMG compliance and plus special feature CF on board. Moreover, IP-4MTI2H is Micro ATX form factor with extra benefits such as 4 COM and SATA to extend the performance of your accomplishments.<br><br>

This series products with the core logic of the Intel® Pentium® M processor integrate Intel® Montara GME chipset. Running at up to 1.8 GHz, this processor only consumes slight power to deliver outstanding performance figures. The processor's clock frequencies could be increased when faster CPU chips are available. In addition, the performance spectrum of lower clock frequencies, it is quite possible to operate in low power condition with a heat sink only.<br><br>

The IP-4MT series comes as a complete industrial computer with slim floppy interface, PS/2 Keyboard, Mouse and a printer port. Four independent Ultra ATA 100 hard¬¬ disks can be connected to the primary and secondary EIDE ports.
