Fujitsu's LifeBook T5010 and T1010 launched

Two Infinite Computing Possibilities - Fujitsu's LifeBook T5010 and T1010

Corporates, students and home users looking for computing versatility will welcome Fujitsu's new LifeBook tablet-convertible notebooks, the LifeBook T5010 and T1010. Two new models targeting two distinct markets, these two new computing gems boast bigger screens, manageable frames and elegant designs.

Sydney Australia September 30, 2008 - Fujitsu PC Australia today introduces its latest enhanced LifeBook tablet-convertible PCs, the LifeBook T5010 and LifeBook T1010. Both notebooks boast a generous 13.3" WXGA 1280 by 800 widescreen pivoting on a bi-directional hinge and yet delivering a weight that gives its users complete mobility and agility.

The LifeBook T5010 and LifeBook T1010 are geared to suit different daily uses, with Fujitsu giving total product solutions to all types and levels of users. The LifeBook T1010 is designed to meet the expectations of creatively experimental entry consumers and thus comes in a fashionable and attractive design. In contrast, the LifeBook T5010 is a full featured tablet PC targeted at vertical professionals and experienced tablet PC users who prefer a wider screen, choice of modular bay change and comprehensive security features such as a Fingerprint Sensor, Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and Smart Card support.

Designed for extreme usability, the LifeBook T5010 and LifeBook T1010 pack a Status LED that allows the system status to be seen even if the screen is closed, a scroll sensor adjacent to the screen to facilitate intuitive control and a Slide power switch to reduce inconvenience due to blunders while rotating the screen. There is even a two-way speaker that ensures uninterrupted music and sound while the screen is closed.

These models come with round-sided edges on both its left and right sides and a slip-resistant dotted design to promote ergonomic handling. The front edge is also rounded, again for better grip and a slimmer look. Another new feature is the 1.3 Mega Pixel camera not available in previous LifeBook T4000 series notebooks.

Sweetening up the entire package is the introduction of a new port replicator that comes with a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI). With this compact audio/video interface, you will be able to connect uncompressed digital streams between set-top boxes, Blu-ray Disc players, personal computers, video game consoles, and AV receivers to compatible digital audio devices, video monitors and digital televisions (DTV). Mr. Ivan Chan, Country Director, Fujitsu PC Australia says, "Fujitsu recognises that tablet PCs are increasingly winning the favour of computer consumers globally. Our latest offerings, the Fujitsu LifeBook T5010 and T1010 tablet-convertible notebooks, bring tablet PC fans a whole host of practical computing and usage possibilities in the confines of a notebook and reaffirm our status as the preferred provider of tablet PCs."


LifeBook T5010


The successor of the LifeBook T4220, the LifeBook T5010 brings new delights. Not only is its screen wider -13.3", it also comes with a newly developed SuperFine widescreen with Backlight LED, a wider 160-degree viewing angle, GM45 Integrated Graphics, brightness rating of 300nits, 500:1 contrast ratio and a bi-directional swivel. Be it at a meeting in a boardroom or outdoors in a cafe, you can impress with a visually vivid presentation that the audience can see in full view from any direction.

For looks, the elegant LifeBook T5010 comes with a glossy black metallic finish and the noticeable extended glass covering all the screen held by a chromed hinge. The stylus has been crafted in system black with a genuine metal ring, eraser button and a hot-stamped LIFEBOOK metallic logo to complete the premium look.

The LifeBook T5010 readily provides superior performance with a cutting edge Intel® Platform (Intel® Centrino® 2 processor technology), Intel® Core 2 Duo Processor (Penryn), complete Windows Vista® compatibility, magnum size 250GB Hard Disk Drive ideal for endless email and business file storage, powerful DDR3 memory (1066MHz) and a swappable modular bay (12.7mm SATA) catering to multiple usage scenarios.

The LifeBook T5010 is also aptly built with an Active Digitiser to provide greater precision and accuracy for writing, which is generally important everywhere, including the medical, construction and finance industries. This LifeBook also has a swappable modular bay that makes the machine lighter with the use of the weight saver and extends machine usage time with the aid of a modular battery.

Also equipped with a Digital Dual Microphone, 1.3 Mega Pixel Web Camera, WLAN 11AGN, 1000/100/10Mbps GigaBit LAN, 56Kbps modem and Bluetooth® v2.1, the LifeBook T5010 makes video and conference calls audibly and visually crystal clear and a breeze when it comes to connectivity. To provide for unforeseen job exigencies, this tablet-convertible has multiple ports such as 3 USB, Modem, LAN, Microphone-In and Out, VGA-Out, IEEE 1394, Ms/SD/SDHC and Smart Card ports.

Mindful that the target users of the LifeBook T5010 may be using older versions of DV appliances to transfer video/film to their computers, Fujitsu has equipped this LifeBook with IEEE1394. It also comes with a Smart Card slot to enable users to slot the company's own smart card for log in or use it to provide greater security.

This LifeBook also features a 5-button Security Button that offers a programmable panel which protects against unauthorised entry and provides easy one-touch access to applications. Since corporate professionals place a premium on confidential data, this notebook has a Fingerprint Sensor to better secure business information and make it available only upon a swipe of a pre-registered fingerprint. And to safeguard against careless moments, the LifeBook T5010 comes with the Fujitsu 3D Shock Sensor to prevent damage to the hard disk caused by vibration and shocks and a Spill-resistant Keyboard to protect against accidental spillage.

The Fujitsu LifeBook T5010 is an environmentally-friendly product of Fujitsu's green factory concept. In addition, Fujitsu strives to make each activity green and takes every effort to ensure that its PCs honour its commitment to green living, the green IT cause and sustaining the Earth.
