Kangaroo Mobile Desktop Pro

InFocus Corporation announces Kangaroo Mobile Desktop Pro, that takes their original Kangaroo Mobile Desktop PC and adds features and connectivity.

The Windows 10 Kangaroo Pro features the new Dock Pro with VGA, HDMI and Ethernet connectivity as well as one USB 3.0 port, two USB 2.0 ports, a 2.5 inch hard drive bay and an audio port, expanding the applications for this powerful, ultra-portable PC.

With a mouse, keyboard and any screen (or even an iPad), Kangaroo Pro becomes a full Windows 10 desktop PC. Now with the added VGA connection, Kangaroo Pro can be used with virtually any PC Monitor or projector for uncompressed media files, Microsoft Office desktop programs, as a presentation device or as an on-the-go travel companion.

With its $199 price point, educators can present content in the classroom by connecting Kangaroo Pro to a projector or digital whiteboard and can easily move it between classrooms, without shutting down, because of the integrated battery and pocket-sized form factor.

“With Kangaroo Pro, we’ve created a powerful PC in a completely new form factor that builds on the success of the Kangaroo PC,” said Lawrence Yen, director of Kangaroo product marketing. “Kangaroo Pro lets you go from your desk to the conference room to home with the same access to all your desktop programs and media files. We’ve added more features and connections to make it the most versatile mobile PC on the market.”

OSLinx is the unique Kangaroo application that allows users to have their Win10 Kangaroo on their iPads. Today, a new full IOS version, which now includes iPhone functionality, of the OSLinx app is available on the Apple app store for $4.99 USD. The app update allows users to fully interact with their Kangaroo Windows 10 desktop via the touch interface of iPhones (4s, 5/5s, 6/6s, & 6 Plus/6s Plus) with iOS8 and above.

An updated iPad version (free) is also available today to support screen resolutions of 1025x768 and iPad Pro 1400x1050. The updated version of OSLinx is available for download by all current Kangaroo users.

InFocus works with Seagate to offer Kangaroo Pro with Seagate ultra-small (7mm) and light hard disks (1 TB, ST1000LM035, and 2 TB, ST2000LM007).
