Fujitsu launches the SlimEdge Lifebook S6510
Fujitsu, known to lovingly produce a laptop from time to time, has once again stepped into the fray with a new offering in its Lifebook line. The company has just announced the Lifebook S6510 (in China, at least), and it's somehow managed to squeeze a 14.1-inch display into the "SlimEdge" casing which would typically house a 13.3-inch system. Besides the medical-marvel that is the LED-backlight WXGA display, the laptop features a Core 2 Duo T7700 or T7500, the illustrious 965GM Express chipset, an Intel PRO / Wireless 4965AGN/3945BG WiFi card, Intel GMA X3100 GPU, 160GB hard drive, 2GB of RAM (upgradable to 4GB), and a DVD "Super Multi Burner." We're not sure these figures are accurate, but Engadget China has the T7500 model clocking in at a whopping 72,800 yuan, while the T7700 will run you 76,800 yuan, which is pretty steep for a laptop. Of course, if you really want one, you'll probably have to hit up your local importer... or book a flight.Update: So our main man Atticus from Engadget China has confirmed, the price is in Taiwanese dollars, thus making the US cost around $2,247 and $2,370 respectively.
Eizo's SlimEdge FlexScan 21 and 24-inch monitors: you call that slim?
If you liked Eizo's 19-inch FlexScan LCD then check these 21.1-inch and 24-inch panels from Eizo's SlimEdge (and FatAzz) lineup of monitors. While there's no doubting the ultra-slim bezel of that other Eizo SlimEdge we saw, this is pushing it. The 24-inch, S2411W brings a 1920x1200 WUXGA resolution and 6-ms response while the 21.1-inch, S2111W features a 1680x1050 WSXGA+ resolution and 8-ms response. Both panels share some of the picture processing technology of their Foris.TV brethren while delivering a 178-degree visibility, 450cd/m2 brightness, and a 1000:1 (native) on up to 3000:1 contrast ratio when their contrast optimizer magic is switched on. They also feature 2x HDCP-enabled DVI-I inputs and 2x USB 2.0 jacks. Expect the chubsters to hit Japan starting December 6th, with the S2411W set to pull ¥139,800 (about $1,183) while the S2111W will set you back a more modest ¥89,250 (about $755).
