Discover one of life's little wonders with Fujitsu LifeBook P1610

Hong Kong, October 23, 2006 — Fujitsu PC Asia Pacific today proudly announces the new tablet PC, the LifeBook P1610 offering new levels of performance, mobility and control for virtually any consumer, business or vertical application. Hot on the trails of its award-winning predecessor, the new LifeBook P1610 is set to be another winner in the ultra-portable tablet PC sector. This hardly comes as a surprise, considering that the ultra-svelte one-kilogram fashion statement is also intelligently designed to fit the lifestyle of mobile trendsetters.

With a display of 8.9 inches, this new LifeBook now comes with a WXGA transflective LCD suitable for any lighting environment, indoors and out. The backlight ON / OFF button makes it easy to transit from indoors to outdoors at the press of the button . The touch screen display allows control via the complementary stylus or your fingertip, providing the perfect combination of easy navigation and pen input to make this impressive machine even more functional.

A truly versatile machine, consumers can choose to use it as a normal notebook PC or convert it into a tablet PC simply by swiveling the screen around in either direction, thanks to the fantastically convenient bi-directional hinge. Its considerate design also allows you to log-on to Windows® instantly, access encrypted files, and access confidential information simply with a swipe of your finger.

Another unique feature found in LifeBook P1610 is the innovative three-dimensional shock sensor utility (SSU) which is designed to decrease the risk of damage to the computer's hard disk drive in the event of excessive impact or vibration. Upon detection of imminent impact, the read-write head is safely parked, thereby eliminating the chance of it impacting the spinning hard disk plate.

In addition, the SSU has the ability to improve the security of the notebook by automatically locking the notebook with a password whenever movement is detected, while conveniently offering full customizability to ensure this feature is only activated when truly appropriate. A standard battery of up to 4 hours can give you more time away from desk. An impressive battery life of up to 8 hours with an optional second battery maximizes productivity while on-the-go.

Besides the Fingerprint Recognition Technology and shock sensor utility, LifeBook P1610 is designed to include a superb and comprehensive range of security solutions for true peace of mind. These include LifeBook Lock, a BIOS lock, a HDD lock with two level password protection, an anti-theft lock socket to physically secure your computer, and the Trusted Platform Module 1.2 to fully protect your valuable data. The versatile LifeBook P1610 is also equipped with Application Buttons, including 2 programmable applications launch buttons, to suit the requirement of individual users. In order to provide users with cutting edge technology, the P1610 is Windows Vista™ ready which translates to an updated graphical user interface and visual style, improved searching features, and new multimedia creation tools.

The LifeBook P1610 features two USB 2.0 ports, VGA (external display), RJ45 LAN port, RJ11 Modem port, Mic-in, Headphone-out, Microphone-in, Port Replicator Interface, PCI Type II, SD connectivity and a range of video viewing options for smooth connectivity to multimedia peripherals.
