Panasonic Toughbook - Mobile Navigation Quick review and pics

Here are some preliminary pics of my new to me (used) Panasonic Toughbook CF-28. A really amazing machine! Primarily being used for navigation, mobile radio programming and control, electronic truck manuals + stored tech web pages, DVD movies, etc.
Running it as stripped down as I can to maximize disk space and operating system speed. I've done a quick check with my GPS and works well with city streets. I haven't tried connection to topo maps yet.
Vey impressed with the overall build quality, usefullness of the touchscreen, the backlit keyboard and its vibration/shock/dust/water protection. I wouldn't want to type a long essay on the keyboard and I wouldn't wnat to have to carry it too far, but aside from that, it is amazing!
Cheers, Hugh
