Stadium WiFi and Weatherproof Tablet PCs?

Posted by Cliff on from the hardware-that-can-handle-the-abuse dept.

StadiumOutfitter asks: "I've been tasked with setting up a wireless network for an open air stadium - not just for internet access but potentially with in seat food/drink orders and even interactive game related content. That's the easy part, really. What I'd really like to find is a rugged and weatherproof handheld device (tablet or PDA style) that can do Wifi. The plan is to rent them out during gamedays for people who want to participate, but can't bring a laptop. Any suggestions?

    I get really pissed off when a 2 second google query becomes a frontpage Ask Slashdot piece. This has nothing to do with Ask Slashdot, and everything with "looky here, how cool am I? I am doing improbable research into an improbable solution! But it's really cool"
