I just bought one of these, and I have to say I am quite pleased with it. Check out Lisa Gade's review:
http://www.mobiletechreview.com/notebooks/Fujitsu-U820.htm She only gave it 3 out of 5 stars, but that was when it was over $1,000.00. Also, it originally came with Vista, which ran kind of slow (resource hog that it is) and Service Pack 2 helped to speed it up. Many downgraded to XP Tablet, and were very happy with performance. Myself? I upgraded to Windows 7 and I am really happy with it. I hope to investigate some Linux distros as well, but haven't had time yet. This thing is loaded with features: 1.6 Ghz Intel Atom Z530 processor 1 GB RAM (well that's a little too minimalist) 5.6" screen 1280 X 800 resolution Intel GMA 530 video 60 GB hard drive 1.3 MegaPixel webcam a,b,g,draftn WIFI Bluetooth GPS and Garmin Mobile PC Software convertable to tablet mode touchscreen 1 USB port CF slot Type I and II SD card slot Fingerprint sensor VGA out and Ethernet using supplied dongle 4 cell battery gets about 7 or 8 hours Mono speaker and audio jacks Got mine for $416.00 plus (exorbitant) shipping charge ($457.00 total) from ubid.com. You won't find a more feature packed portable for the price. |
