The P1500 Lifebook from Fujitsu is on the cutting edge of mobility. Weighing only 2.2 pounds, and boasting a form factor as compact as a DVD case, this laptop's portability, and Tablet PC capability, make it a good choice for a variety of business users, and mobile professionals.
Fujitsurecently unveiled the MHV2160BT, a 2.5 inch 160GB hard drive -Undoubtedly big news for portable computing. Now we hear ofsmaller but no less important news from Fujitsu. The globalcommunications/information technology company have created whatthey believe to be the lightest pen-enabled convertible laptop onthe mobile block - the Lifebook P1500.This mini tablet PC weighs only 2.2 pounds, and is around thesize of a DVD case, enabling it to fit easily on a plane's tabletray for movie watching, or slide conveniently into a doctor'swhite coat. Indeed a medical professional would find the P1500useful for taking notes from a patient using the pen stylus, and8.9 inch swiveling SVGA LCD touchscreen. Later the Lifebook couldbe connected to the ward's main work-station to transfer thepatient's data.
The LifebookP1500 may be small, but it's no weakling. Powered by Pentium M -Sonoma -Processor from Intel, and boasting 1 GB of system memory, excellent wi-fi connectivity and data transfer rates, up to 7 hours of batterylife, and a 60GB shock-mounted hard drive. This notebook won'tallow sand to be kicked in it's face.
With a laptop as ultraportable as the LifebookP1500, security is sometimes a concern. Sure the light weight,and svelte form factor make it extremely compact, but thieveswould also like to take advantage of the Lifebook's portablequalities. Thankfully the P1500 is equipped with an extra layerof laptop security in the form of a biometric fingerprint reader,allowing you to thwart unauthorised access to confidentialdata.
As well as the ability to transform from Tablet PC mode to alaptop, the LifeBook P1500 can also be converted into a desktopPC. When you tire of the p1500's ultralight capability, hook the Lifebook up to the optional docking station, and enjoy the convenience of a desktop PC with full sizedkeyboard, and 19 inch monitor.
We predict the mini P1500 will be a big seller for Fujitsu.Engineers, medical professionals, lab workers, and road warriors,should enjoy this Lifebooks's ultraportability, long batterylife, and tablet versatility.
