Fujitsu's LOOX T70XN laptop: now in a multitude of colors

Just in case Fujitsu's colorful new line of LOOX U50XNs weren't enough for ya, the outfit is also giving a vivid facelift to its LOOX T70XN. This ultraportable sports a 10.6-inch LED-backlit display, a 1.2GHz Core 2 Duo U7600 processor, up to 2GB of DDR2 RAM, between 80GB and 100GB of hard drive space, and Intel's GMA950 graphics set. Moreover, this bad boy can get up to 13.8-hours of battery life when hooked up with optional cells, and connectivity shouldn't be an issue considering the built-in WiFi, Bluetooth, 56k modem, 4-pin FireWire, twin USB 2.0 sockets, multicard reader, and audio / in outs. This well-spec'd little machine can be had right now for around $2,650 depending on options, but it's the nine color choices that are likely to give you the most pause when ordering.

Ooohhh pretty colors! I wonder if it's like Dell... you know... pretty as in black. :)

Nice looking ultraportable with good battery options. I could use one of those. The price is too damn high for now and what's with charging $871 for 2GB RAM instead of 1GB. Thanks, I'd buy the 1GB and upgrade myself. Same deal on the hard drive, the - marginal - upgrade is ridiculously overpriced.

Why can't this have a touchscreen and be the true successor to the P1610! Its exactly what I want! Long battery life, small yet usable screen, and enough horsepower to do some inking in Visio and manage documents while onsite.

Now you're just dreaming.

Personally, I'm with you. Such a device is exactly what I'm looking for, along with the rest of the planet.

Let's see it happen, maybe with a 32GB flash partition instead of a HDD. It would probably run for days! Alternatively, build it with an 8GB flash partition for the OS, with a conventional HDD.

THAT's what I want.

Yeah I am dreaming, there is no such product on the market. Hell, nobody even makes a true 10.4" slate anymore! Fujitsu's ST5111 10.4" slate is the EXACT same physical dimensions as the ST5112 12.1" slate. No point in the 10.4 existing honestly.

Plus you can already get the P1610 with a 32gb SSD so I didn't bother to include it :)

After the OQO model 2 not working out for size reasons (inking is hard!) I'm back on the hunt and I swear I've gone through every model on the market.
For me its down to the P1610 w/SSD (my original intention) or the ST5112 and some wireless keyboard/mouse gear. Some of my clients picked up some ST5112s (without any of my own influencing surprisingly) that I will be installing next week so I'll be closer to making my decision then.

I would personally pay $3k for a touchscreen version w/o SSD of the T70XN that could hit at least "7.5 hours" of battery life on balanced power usage mode. You hear that Fujitsu?

These do look really good, but I fully agree on it (and it's upgrades) being overpriced. Come on dudes, what do you take us for??

[Devilmachine @ Sep 4th 2007 10:01PM]

thats one fricken ugly looking laptop, I dont care what colours they come in, the design is horrid.

I like the looks of my Vaio TZ better, and that's got an SSD option...even though i was too cheap to spring for an SSD. Though i did manage to cram a 250gb sata into it... good times...
