The Motorola MC3090-Z brings RFID functionality to indoor business or "carpeted" environments. Groundbreaking innovations developed for the antenna end the compromise of choosing between linear polarization for a longer read range or circular polarization for wider coverage. Motorola has created technology that combines both for superior coverage. The orientation insensitive antenna delivers extraordinary reliability and eliminates the need to precisely align the reader with the tag, adding to user comfort and productivity.

SOARING SERVICE AWARD
Jamie Frantom
I want to ensure that you're aware of the dynamic support that I have received from one of your professional technicians, Jamie Frantom …. I'm confident that Jamie was instrumental n taking care of my problem.

I've ordered various "Genuine Zebra ribbons" for our P330i, and they work until about 1/2 of the way through the ribbon; but then they indicate that they are out of ribbon, and cannot produce any more cards … I really appreciate his technical expertise, and the professional manner that he has always responded to me.
