In April 2014, it was announced that Motorola Solutions' enterprise business (including assets acquired in the Psion Teklogix purchase) is to be sold to Zebra Technologies.
Teklogix was created in 1967 by Rod Coutts, a 1964 bachelor of applied science in electrical engineering, together with a small group of young Canadian engineers. The company grew to specialize in empowering mobile workers with wireless data transmission and real-time data management within the logistics industry.
The Psion Group, founded in 1980 by David Potter, is widely credited with having created the world's first volume produced PDA with the launch of the Psion Organiser in 1984. Generally recognized as the world's first practical pocket computer, the Organiser helped evolve Psion into a major technology player.
