Fujitsu T5010 tablet PC breaks cover at university bookstore

fujitsu-t5010 Fujitsu T5010 tablet PC breaks cover at university bookstore

Fujitsu doesn’t seem to have gotten official with it just yet but, if the Virginia Tech University bookstore is any indication, it looks like the company is all but set to launch its new T5010 tablet PC. Assuming their specs are on the mark, you can apparently look forward to this one packing a 13.3-inch LED backlit WUXGA display, 2GB of RAM, an unspecified 45nm Core 2 Duo processor, a 120GB hard drive, the usual integrated Intel graphics, and a built-in DVD burner — plus the standard built-in webcam and fingerprint reader. All that’ll set you back $1,999 (including an HP all-in-one printer). While there’s no word on an exact release date, the bookstore will apparently have models on display in July, with units available for pick-up in time for the August move-in.

netbook Intels Netbook: vs. Asus EEE PC?

We’re not exactly sure what to make of this one just yet, but the photo above seems to indicate that Intel may be hopping on the quickly growing sub-$400 laptop bandwagon. Reportedly spotted at an undisclosed OEM facility, the so-called Netbook would weigh less than three pounds, arrive in June and feature a 900MHz Celeron processor, 512MB of RAM, a 40GB hard drive, 9-inch display, built-in WiFi / Ethernet and a convenient carry handle à la Eduwise. We know, you’ve no idea how you’re going to contain your excitement over another budget priced lappie, but feel free to tap the read link for a couple more snapshots.
