Trimble just introduced a budget GPS-enabled data collection handheld running Windows Mobile 5.0. The Juno ST GPS/GIS (Geographic Information System) mainly targets enterprises and government organizations that need a handheld positioning system for collecting data in the field.

The Juno ST handheld is ideal for utility companies, government organizations, and agencies that are managing large deployments and tight budgets. In applications such as forestry mapping and workforce automation, where accuracy may be less important, and high productivity is essential, the Juno ST handheld is ideal. Incorporating a high-sensitivity GPS receiver, it has been specifically designed to maximize yield of positions in hostile environments, such as under forest canopy and up against buildings.

Juno ST features a 2.8-inch full-color QVGA (240 x 320 pixel), backlit touchscreen display and is powered by a 300MHz Samsung S3C2442 processor. It’s comes with 64MB of DRAM and 128MB of non-volatile flash data storage memory, and an SD card slot for memory expansion. In terms of connectivity you got WiFi and Bluetooth, along with a USB “slave” port; a microphone and speaker are also provided.

The Juno ST is expected to be available this May. We’re not sure what this low-cost device is going to cost just yet.
