Bernina USA has released the first and only sewing and embroidery system that uses Microsoft Windows CE. You can store sewing patterns and other information in folders, or file drawers, you can connect to the internet with the PCMCIA modem to share patterns or buy premium content from Bernina's myartista Portal. There are even ports to plug in an external CD-ROM and other USB peripherals.
Interesting to see this thread in the fabric of Windows CE development. Never before has any product taken advantage of the multithreading capabilities of the Windows CE operating system as this will. It seams Bernina has this high end of the sewing market buttoned up. I know these devices are going to be in good hands too since their customers are the worlds best at applying patches. I don't know about you, but I am on pins and needles waiting for the artista 200E to begin shipping. Source: John Mierau
