HAFAS-Pocket ... for train guides

For their daily work with mobile terminals, train personnel requires additional features in the known
traveller version of HAFAS-Pocket.
Usually mobile terminals for train guides have extended hardware equipment (keyboard, printer)
compared to standard consumer PDAs.
For train guides timetable information is just an additional customer information feature amongst other
operational functions like e.g. ticket sales.
