Fujitsu’s LifeBook S6510 has been tested by the folks over at Notebook Review. The 4-pound super-thin 14.1-inch laptop was found to be rigid with an acceptable LCD. It performed well in tests and the keyboard was user-friendly. However, it does emit a bit of heat, but it passed the grade as a good light-weight business laptop.

Ben: 9 / 10 – "I’d say as a mobile phone it ranks highly, but it’s not a ’smartphone’."
Chris: 6 / 10 – "Great in-the-box wow factor, terrible out-of-the-box wow factor."
Conrad: 9 / 10 – "The only multi-function gadget available that manages to maintain the illusion of not being a device of compromises."
Dante: 9 / 10 – "Finally, a phone that can replace my K800i. But truth be told, I could actually do all these amazing things before."
Evan: 4.5 / 10 – "I got so frustrated by the tiny ‘keys’ and unusable browser that I just put it down after five minutes."
Josh (the guy that returned his): 5 / 10 – "Annoyed with the keyboard, toy-like interface, and limited ability to customize. Truth be told, if I can’t install an NES emulator on it, I’m probably not interested."
Nilay: 8.5 / 10 – "Terrific except for the email app and GSM noise."
Paul: 9 / 10 – "It’s pretty much all I want in a phone, and I’d give it a 10 if I could load a SNES emulator on it."
Peter: 6 / 10 – "Beautiful and easy to use, it gets a lot of things right and completely changes the game when it comes to mobile interfaces. Too bad it’s really hard to get any work done with it."
Ryan: 7.5 / 10 – "The best converged phone / media device yet, but it’s got problems. For instance, the email app. Until they get it together it’s fun, but not very productive."
Average score: 7.4
