Data Collection That Fits in Your Hand or Pocket

SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 23, 2007 -- Trimble (NASDAQ: TRMB) today introduced the latest addition to its Mapping and Geographic Information System (GIS) product line—the Juno™ ST handheld. The Juno ST handheld is a portable, low-cost data collection solution supported by Trimble's range of field and office software. It comes standard with a built-in high-sensitivity Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver, Microsoft® Windows Mobile® version 5.0 software, and has Wi-Fi/Bluetooth® for wireless connectivity to office networks, cameras and mobile phones.

The Juno ST handheld's low price point facilitates large-scale deployment, allowing a company or organization to equip a significant number of its employees; it is especially practical for use in applications where high productivity is most important. Examples include natural resources organizations, utility companies, and government agencies conducting inspection and permitting tasks. The Juno ST handheld is also fully compatible with other Trimble data collection systems, utilizing the same software and workflows as the entire range of Trimble Mapping & GIS solutions.

Delivering a range of 2 to 5 meter positioning, real-time or postprocessed, the Juno ST handheld incorporates a high-sensitivity GPS receiver and has been specially designed to maximize yield of positions in hostile environments, such as under forest canopy and up against buildings. For use in a vehicle, an external antenna can be added.

"The Juno ST handheld is ideal for companies and organizations that need to deploy a large number of data collection systems in the field," said Doug Merrill, general manager of Trimble's Mapping & GIS Division. "Small and light enough to fit in your pocket, the Juno ST can easily complement an existing field operation and can be added into your current workflow."

Weighing in at just 4.8 ounces (133 grams) and measuring approximately 4.3 in x 2.4 in x 0.7 in (10.9 cm x 6.0 cm x 1.9 cm), the Juno ST handheld is lightweight and compact, and its small form factor makes it portable and convenient to use.

Purpose-built for streamlined data collection, the Juno ST handheld has 128 MB of non-volatile Flash data storage and a Secure Digital (SD) card slot for additional data storage. The removable Li-Ion battery is rechargeable and lasts for up to eight hours.

The Juno ST handheld provides flexibility with Windows Mobile 5.0 software and includes familiar Microsoft productivity tools such as Word Mobile, Excel Mobile, Internet Explorer Mobile and Outlook® Mobile.

The Juno ST handheld GPS receiver is available for order now through Trimble's Mapping & GIS dealer network. It is expected to begin shipping in early May 2007.
