8 14 07 t2010 Fujitsu Does Have a Way with Tablets   T2010 is Nifty

As usual, Fujitsu has cooked up some delicious Tablet PC goodness in the upcoming T2010. Check out the specs:

  • Intel Core 2 Duo ULV at 1.06GHz or 1.2GHz
  • Intel GM 965 Chipset (so, Santa Rosa)
  • Up to 4GB of DDR2-533 RAM
  • 12.1" WXGA Screen with LED backlight
  • Intel GMA X1300 graphics (so, not a gaming machine, obviously)
  • Up to 120GB SATA
  • Wi-Fi 802.11a/g/n or a/b/g
  • Bluetooth
  • Gigabit Ethernet
  • Standard battery life of up to 9 hours, up to 11 hours with extended version
  • 3.31 lbs

No, for those who are into tablets, those are some nice specs. Just the right size, performance would be fine for a Tablet (which to should never be expected to be a decent gaming machine), and a screen that’s high enough resolution without being blinding. Pricing will start at $1,599, and I’m sure go up from there with the appropriate options.

8 10 07 foleo A Few Tidbits Leak Out on the Palm Foleo

There are those, myself included, who wonder at the value of the Palm Foleo, but who are we to judge? The specifications are starting to trickle out, and so perhaps there’s something in there to get excited about:

  • 416MHz Intel-Marvel PXA27x processor
  • Marathon 2700G graphics with video out
  • 128MB of RAM for running applications
  • 256MB of non-volatile RAM for storage
  • CompactFlash and SD slots
  • Wi-Fi
  • Wind River Systems Linux

Well, okay, nothing too exciting there, although some of the parts are a bit non-standard. I still think the Foleo’s going to have a tough time getting going in the market, but time will tell. As it appears, that time will come fairly soon.

7 28 07 d900tright1 Eurocom D900C Phantom X: Ultimate PC (for now)?

Let’s face it: if you could get everything you need in a notebook, then the desktop computer becomes–as it should–obsolete. Eurocom has come pretty darn close, I think, with the DC900C Phantom-X, which sports some crazy specifications. Let’s just list them out, shall we?

  • Intel Quad-core processors
  • Up to 750GB HDD space
  • Up to 4GB of RAM
  • Blu-Ray optical drive
  • nVidia GPU options, both singular or dual SLI
  • All the ports one would expect
  • Both optical and analog audio in and out
  • All meaningful wireless options (except 802.11n, oddly)
  • Optional TV tuner

The video can be upgraded, as well. Perhaps the only drawback for those looking for a true desktop replacement is the 17" widescreen. And for those wondering, pricing starts at $2,999 for the base model. So start saving those pennies.

7 26 07 tp1 Sonys VAIO TP1 Full of Goodness but Looks Like Ottoman

That might not seem fair, but I swear: I was in a furniture store the other day and saw an ottoman that looked just like Sony’s new VAIO TP1 HTPC. Which might be on purpose, because this thing certainly won’t fit in any A/V rack that I know of. It’s also not the most well-equipped HTPC on the market, with neither an HD optical drive nor CableCARD capability. It does have a Core 2 Duo running at 1.83GHz, 2GB RAM, Intel 950 integrated graphics (yuck!), 300GB SATA HDD, standard dual-layer DVD, and a TV tuner. So, nothing to write home about, but maybe it’s made of soft leather and will let you take a load off. Pricing is $1,599.99 and up.

tosh g45 Toshiba Offers HD DVD R in Qosmio G45 AV680

Okay, some things are just extravagant, you know? Almost embarassingly so. Consider the specs on the new Toshiba Qosmio G45-AV680: HD DVD-R3 drive, USB HD tuner, Santa Rosa Intel PM965 chipset, Core 2 Duo T7300, 2GB RAM,  nVidia GForce 8600 GT 512MB, dual 160GB HDD, all current and future wireless standards, webcam, Harmon Kardon 4-speaker system with subwoofer,  and obligatory fingerprint reader. Whew! It’ll cost you: $3,199, but if you’re in the market for the notebook that has everything (except SSD, I do notice), the Qosmio might be your cup of tea.
