Or would you like to actually discuss why you think the Fujitsu is better than the competitors reviewing actual facts and specs?]]>Jun 29th 2007 2:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/Jun 29th 2007 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/Jun 29th 2007 2:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/
PS. That Sony UX upmc monstrosity doesn't count.]]>Jun 29th 2007 3:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/
I mean...seriously. Would you complain that Sony's UMPC sucks because your dell M1710 has a 17" screen? It's a different market. ]]>Jun 29th 2007 4:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/Jun 29th 2007 2:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/
This is business-centric ultra portable not a One Laptop Per Child device. I would say the main competition of this device is the OQO model 2 and the Samsung Q1 Ultra.]]>Jun 29th 2007 2:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/Jun 29th 2007 2:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/

I don't see any differences in the specs shown (or linked) here.]]>Jun 29th 2007 4:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/
I have to say, after using my P1610 for three weeks now, it's now my new all time fave computing device. I've been a long time ultralight notebook user (IBM Thinkpads 600, X20, Fujitsu P1220, P2120, Sony Vaio T250 (for sale btw!)), and this is the latest ultralight I've gotten.

Keyboard's small, but I still touchtype at about 75wpm on it (my max speed is around 95). Screen's good and bad - poor viewing angles, too-bright gloss coating, but when you have the angles right, it looks gorgeous. Resolution is (I can't believe I'm saying this) too high - very squint inducing, but a quick custom setting of the fonts in Display fix most issues. WiFi is solid, speed is okay (not the fastest, but faster than my Vaio VGN-T250) and most importantly for me, small, tight, and light.

I'm hoping the 64gb SSD will help with a) heat issues, b) battery life (already good, but not as good as the transmetta powered P1210/P1220), c) speed. I'd be willing to pay $500, $600, maybe even $700 for the ssd once the price settles a bit to get the extras it offers.]]>Jun 29th 2007 5:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/fujitsus-8-9-inch-lifebook-p8240-vista-tablet-32gb-ssd-at-just/Jul 1st 2007 10:13PM
