Panasonic Offers Solutions-Based Financing Programs for Toughbook Customers

(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
Panasonic Computer Solutions Company, manufacturer of durable, reliable
Panasonic Toughbook mobile computers, announced it is introducing
flexible financing options to enable customers to purchase and
implement the reliable mobile technology they need to drive long-term
value for their organizations.

Panasonic's flexible lease and payment offerings will enable customers
to respond to organizational requirements to contain costs, while
maintaining their commitments to process improvements they identified
as important before the economic downturn. Financing choices include 0
percent leasing for 36 months, step payments, flexible payments and
deferral and lease-back programs - up to 60 months. The new finance
options are being made available as part of the company's longstanding
relationship with Panasonic Finance Solutions, provided by CoActiv
Partners.

"Our customers rely on technology from Panasonic as an important
strategic tool for their mission-critical mobile workforces. During
tough economic times, customers need to know that they have the
solutions and partners in place to be successful in the long run," said
Rance Poehler, president, Panasonic Computer Solutions Company. "For
our customers, reliable remote access to information is the difference
between success and failure--and failure is not an option. Working
closely with our partners at Panasonic Finance Solutions, and
consulting with our channel partners and customers, we have developed
these flexible new solutions to help organizations make the right
technology decisions to achieve their missions today and be better
positioned for the challenges of tomorrow."

"The value of rugged mobile devices for many field mobility
applications is quite clear," said David Krebs, director, mobile &


wireless practice, VDC Research Group. "Although hardware acquisition
costs for standard mobile devices are generally lower than their rugged
counterparts, ongoing maintenance, replacement and downtime costs
associated with commercial-grade hardware solutions are almost
universally higher. As a result, commercial-grade solutions can cost
more to operate over the life of the deployment. In these economic
conditions, it is more important than ever for companies to understand
the total cost of ownership and return on investment when making
technology purchase decisions. Financing options help make the case for
putting the right technology in the hands of remote users."

David Gerrard, vice president, Panasonic Finance Solutions, said, "We
are financially strong and have capital available for Panasonic
customers to finance the mobile computing technology they need to
continue to be successful. Channel partners and customers can count on
our high quality, responsive service, training and sales support to
help them make the right long-term decisions for their organizations."
