PROFILE |
 |
Psion shouldn't mind being judged by the company it keeps. Psion makes palmtop computers, modems, industrial handheld computers, and peripheral devices. Its Psion Teklogix division targets industrial, commercial, and professional markets, while Psion Digital caters to the consumer market. Psion also provides wireless local-area network implementation services through its Signa Services subsidiary. The company's greatest asset may be its Symbian alliance. A joint venture with Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson, and Matsushita, Symbian is boosting the number of handheld devices using Psion's EPOC operating system (a distant third after Palm OS and Microsoft's Windows CE). Europe accounts for 70% of sales.
