Fujitsu LifeBook T2020 Tablet PC With Centrino 2 & Indoor/outdoor Display
Fujitsu have updated their LifeBook T2010 Tablet PC in the shape of the LifeBook T2020, a 12.1-inch convertible with Intel's Centrino 2 chipset and an upcoming SSD option. Changes elsewhere are minimal, so it's really the choice of SU9300 1.20GHz and SU9400 1.40GHz ultra-low voltage processors that are there to tempt you to update.
Other specs include 1GB of standard RAM or either 2GB or 4GB of Turbo RAM, a 12.1-inch WXGA 1280 x 800 display with optional indoor/outdoor panel, and hard-drives ranging from 80GB to a 250GB 7,200rpm or a 160 5,400rpm; two SSDs will be on offer later this year, either 64GB or 128GB. OS is a choice of Windows Vista or Windows XP.
Standard connectivity includes WiFi and gigabit ethernet; Bluetooth 2.1 is an option, and 3G HSUPA WWAN is coming later in the year. The range starts at $1,699 while a fully-equipped version will be around $2,500.
