  Xplore Technologies Launches New iX104C3 Mobile Computer
                 Highlights of Security and Accessibility Features in New Rugged Offering


Austin, TX ­ July 10, 2006 - Xplore Technologies® Corp. (TSX:XPL), an innovative manufacturer of rugged
mobile computers worldwide, today announced the introduction of the new iX104C3 Tablet PC with durable
finger print reader and user accessible hard drive and PC card bay.

Xplore, which brings a history of leadership and innovation to the rugged pen tablet industry, has again
demonstrated this expertise and customer-oriented concern by introducing the first-ever use of biometrics for
access of data on a rugged pen tablet computer. The durable finger print scanner allows users the added
security authentication benefit, as well as a user-accessible hard drive and PC card bay so that users can
manage and maintain better control of sensitive materials.

"We understand that data security has become an integral issue in today's mobile computing environment.
Based on input from our customers and the needs of target markets, we developed a product that addresses
this issue, yet still maintains our best-in-class rugged characteristics that have become well-known in the
industry," states Mark Holleran, President and COO of Xplore Technologies. "We believe that the iX104C3
tablet is the only rugged computer in today's market that possesses this vital security/loss prevention feature.
This product is another welcome addition to Xplore's rugged mobile computing family and will bring enhanced,
refined benefits to our end-users."

In addition to the security feature, the finger-print scanner has been designed with the flexibility to perform other
functions. The user accessible hard drive and PC card slot allows the end-user further flexibility to administer
and control resources within their application requirements. The new iX104C3 Tablet PC is also RoHS
compliant which satisfies new European requirements.

Along with advanced rugged characteristics of this product, the iX104C3 incorporates wLAN, wWAN, PAN
(Bluetooth) and GPS wireless options that can be used simultaneously. All Xplore products have durable
magnesium alloy housings, shock mounted hard drives, enhanced XGA displays, fast Intel processors and
onboard ports for expansion. They are built to function in physically demanding real-world environments and
will withstand exposure to vibration, extreme temperatures, moisture, dust or drops to concrete. Xplore's award-
winning tablets meet the needs of users looking for rugged mobile computing solutions that can operate far
beyond the reach of normal mobile computing devices.
