Released: Fujitsu LifeBook T2010 Tablet PC

Fujitsu LifeBook T2010 Fujitsu has finally released details of the Fujitsu LifeBook T2010 Tablet PC, their latest ultraportable “convertible” laptop.

The LifeBook T2010 Tablet PC is powered by either an Intel Core 2 Duo Ultra Low Voltage (ULV) U7500 (1.06GHz, 2MB L2 Cache) or a U7600 (1.2GHz, 2MB L2), with a 60GB – 160GB Serial ATA drive, and an external optical drive (accessed through an optional docking station/port replicator). It is powered by Intel’s Santa Rosa platform.

It just so happens that the T2010 with a 12.1″ active digitizer touchscreen / widescreen (1280×800) is also one of the first convertibles to have an LED-backlit display, making for a better display and longer battery life. The standard screen is enhanced for indoor viewing – there is an optional indoor/outdoor display.

Fujitsu is claiming that with the standard 6-cell battery, you can get up to 9 hours of battery life, and with the 9-cell, up to 11 hours. With the standard 6-cell battery, the weight is around 3.5 pounds, going up to 3.8 pounds with the 9-cell.

They ship with either Microsoft Windows Vista Business or Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005. In addition, the FPCM11093 and FPCM11092 ship with 9-cell batteries and the FPCM1109 ships without Bluetooth (optional).
