Fujitsu Computer Systems Corporation recently announced the availability of the palm-sized LifeBook U810 mini convertible notebook. Weighing in at 1.56 pounds with a 5.6-inch LED backlit display, the world's smallest tablet convertible* is ideal for on-the-go work forces who need to run office applications and stay connected while on the road. And for down time, the bright 5.6" LED based screen is ideal for watching a movie, or just listening to your favorite tunes. An integrated camera also makes the LifeBook U810 notebook perfect for video conferencing and digital picture taking.
With the power to run all standard notebook applications, the LifeBook U810 convertible works as a traditional notebook with an ultra-slim QWERTY keyboard, or by swiveling the WSVGA Crystal View illuminated screen, as a handheld Tablet PC with a touch screen for finger or pen input. Back at the office or at home, place the LifeBook U810 notebook into a docking station and attach an external display and keyboard for a true desktop experience.
The LifeBook U810 notebook, which complies with the new Energy Star version 4.0 guidelines, is equipped with the energy-efficient Ultra Low Power Intel A110 processor optimized specifically for highly mobile devices.

It is one of the only products to provide notebook and tablet functionality in this class," said Paul Moore, senior director of mobile product marketing, Fujitsu Computer Systems. "Mobile professionals and consumers who desire the ultimate in mobility shouldn't settle for devices that provide only limited functionality when they can have a fully functioning laptop with the LifeBook U810 convertible notebook."
