Fujitsu Notebook Innovation On Display
LifeBook U820 Mini Notebook Offers Integrated Garmin GPS, LifeBook N7010
Desktop Replacement Provides Dual LCD Displays
Fujitsu Computer Systems Corporation today announced notebook innovations that satisfy consumer and corporate demand for greater mobility and usability. The 1.32 pound LifeBook(R) U820 convertible mini notebook, the first mini notebook combining full-featured Windows(R) PC functionality with integrated Garmin Mobile(R) PC navigation software, provides powerful computing and complete GPS navigation for about the same price as a premium GPS system. The LifeBook N7010 desktop replacement notebook is the industry’s first full-size notebook to include a second Touch Zone display for keeping more information visible at all times without cluttering the main desktop.

Powered by the Intel(R) Centrino(R) Atom(TM) Z-series processor, the LifeBook U820 mini notebook with integrated turn-by-turn, voice-prompted navigation from Garmin eliminates the need for on-the-go consumers and mobile professionals, particularly in the field force and sales force automation areas to carry separate devices for computing and navigation. The LifeBook U820 mini-notebook’s 5.6-inch Crystal View wide XGA touch screen is the ideal viewing screen offering a similar viewing area to standalone GPS systems. Its improved QWERTY keyboard features an extra set of rows for more comfortable typing and a zoom utility for easier viewing.
The LifeBook N7010 has not one, but two LCD screens encased in a sleek glossy black housing. The primary screen is an impressive large, 16-inch wide-aspect Crystal View Display which delivers brighter images and richer colors, while a second 4-inch Touch Zone touch screen enhances productivity by keeping information, such as photo slide show, CD/DVD controls, or application shortcuts visible at all times for seamless multitasking.
Instead of minimizing applications, consumers can have two live applications running at the same time by dragging one into the Touch Zone. For example, they can work on a large file on the main screen and chat on the webcam below.
Fujitsu also announced the LifeBook P1630 feather-light and compact convertible tablet PC featuring the new Intel(R) Centrino(R) 2 Ultra Low Voltage processor technology, integrated wireless broadband and a webcam.
