Though I wonder if that would be the sort of thing to bring on a backpacker trip. I mean, I don't think a whole lot of people would bother stealing it, and it would double as a weapon as well.]]>Jul 9th 2008 1:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/panasonics-toughbook-cf-u1-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/panasonics-toughbook-cf-u1-gets-reviewed/Jul 9th 2008 10:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/panasonics-toughbook-cf-u1-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/panasonics-toughbook-cf-u1-gets-reviewed/http://robdamanii.com/macros/this-is-a-bad-post.jpg]]>Jul 9th 2008 3:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/panasonics-toughbook-cf-u1-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/panasonics-toughbook-cf-u1-gets-reviewed/Jul 9th 2008 10:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/panasonics-toughbook-cf-u1-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/panasonics-toughbook-cf-u1-gets-reviewed/Jul 9th 2008 11:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/panasonics-toughbook-cf-u1-gets-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/09/panasonics-toughbook-cf-u1-gets-reviewed/
Here's a company putting real engineering talent in a machine for the rugged market and paying particular attention to usability for the target market. Using it in the rain? Yes please. Sun? Yup. This type of product excites me. Hot swappable batteries with 9 hours runtime? SIGN ME UP.

Unique. Absolutely unique product. Brilliant. With almost everyone else diong the same crap - excuse the French - this is a breath of fresh air on these pages.

So no, it's not a good alternative for bringing with you to the airport to surf the web. It IS a good solution if you're on top of a telephone pole trying to reference power line schematics during a rain storm.
