Of those, 35 percent said that these upgrades are being driven by current mobile platforms, including Microsoft's Windows CE or Windows Mobile, nearing end-of-life. This is making way for the emergence of a new generation of modern Android-powered handheld devices, purpose-built and ruggedized for the supply chain, that are now taking the place of legacy mobile devices within today's warehousing operations.
