Hashtech launches cheaper models for Nano series of Kiosks

Bangalore: Hashtech has launched four new models of Kiosks under the Nano series. Specifically designed for the Indian environment, these machines are rugged to withstand extreme operation conditions and come at prices that are at least 50-60 percent lower than what is available in the market. "We have been able to achieve these prices by taking advantage of new technologies like thin clients and the Atom series of processors. Apart from the low cost of acquisition, the new kiosks also have low overall cost of operation due to their frugality in consuming power," said Harish Sukhwal, Founder of the company. HSK Nano DW 0901 and HSK Nano DF 0911 need a LAN environment to run and are based on a Devon IT thin client. Both are ideal for restaurants, libraries, bank information terminals, hospitals and educational institutes. HSK Nano DF 0911 is better suited for environments where the kiosk body will be used for publicity. These models work on wide variety of system software including Linux and Windows. HSK Nano DW 0901 is priced at Rs 38,999 while HSK Nano DF 0911 is available at 44,999. HSK Nano ZW 0921 and HSK Nano ZF 0931 are based on Intel's Atom processor. HSK Nano ZW 0921 can be used to run a wide variety of media from movies, to flash presentations and all types of kiosk software. Typical locations would be airports, rail and bus stations, malls, hospitals, movie theaters, exhibitions and educational institutes and is available at 42,999. HSK Nano ZF 0931 is ideally suited for environments where the kiosk body will be used for publicity and is priced at 48,999.
