Azentek has responded by offering the new Atlas™ CPC-1000.  The Atlas CPC-1000 empowers consumers by connecting them to the world.  The new Atlas is a fully functional computer running the new Microsoft Windows Vista™ operating system.  With built-in WiFi & Bluetooth^TM and open PC card slot for optional wireless broadband connectivity, the Atlas CPC-1000 allows for mobile access to the internet and other devices anytime and anywhere.  The system allows consumers to spend the time they are in their vehicles more efficiently.
