Motorola has on its drawing board a mission-critical Bluetooth solution that would allow the pairing of LMR handsets to data devices - such as its line of enterprise digital assistants that first responders use to issue e-citations and to scan driver's license barcodes and fingerprints, among other uses.rnThe link would provide a crucial backup capability in the event that the cellular data network becomes unavailable, said Thomas Quirke, Motorola's director of solutions marketing. For example, should the data network go down, a police officer still could scan fingerprints of a suspect using his data device but transmit the information over the agency's LMR network.
