Fujitsu took the opportunity at the IFA to announce their latest entrant in the netbook segment — a netbook with 4-Finger multitouch. This is the LifeBook T580 that is also a convertible netbook. This netbook is expected to beat slate devices thanks tot he multitouch capabilities and the convertible form factor. However, there’s a catch. This 10.1 inch netbook actually seems to be using a dual-input capacitive touchscreen with a digitizer. The Lifebook T580 in fact does feature a full stylus that can be stowed away in the body itself. This makes it impossible for it to be anywhere near the usual netbook pricing. So get ready for some serious sticker shock when this thing does come out. But, given the netbook form factor the component options are actually pretty damn good. You have the option of going up to a Core i5 with the T580 and also the options for 3G and GPS capabilities. Also, Fujitsu promises 8 hours of battery life with the model. They have also implemented some good business-centric security features with the model to make it more conducive to their corporate clients. The company has released the video demo that you can see above. Check it out to see the digitizer in action. It shows the four finger multitouch capabilities. However, Fujitsu fails to mention the digitizer or highlight it in the press copy. May be they thought that that was old news and the 4-finger multitouch is the latest in thing to be mentioned. At the end, no matter how much this form factor tries to adapt to the latest developments — it remains an old and tired form factor that is getting exceedingly bulky when compared with the rest of the market. Hence, I do not see them continuing much farther in to the future. [via]
This is a 10.1 inch netbook that is running on Intel’s latest Atom — the N450 Pintrail chip that is basically the heart of every new netbook that is coming out now. Well, almost every netbook that is coming out now some are still using the older Atoms to clear out their stocks or lower retail prices. Even though the MH380 is not very different from all the other netbooks in the market while going by components, it is still one of the few to have 2GB RAM and a large 250GB HDD. It has a 1366×768 display, which has a aspect ratio of 16:9, so it is quite a good model for watching video content. There’s also built-in Bluetooth, which seems like a standard on every model These little differences are probably what will make this netbook worth buying because the $449 price tag does come across as being slightly on the expensive side. The MH380 is supposed to be available in multiple colors, including Red, White, Black and Brown. But right now the official website is only showing the Red one. We are not sure why this is but it definitely suits the mood for those of you who are shopping for Valentine’s day gifts. Fujitsu has always been known for making quality products and that fact has always shown in their netbooks as well. You trust this company to to pay at least some attention to the design whilst others just seem to be glad to put something together when it comes to netbooks. New specifications can be found here: |

Looks like the stylish MH380 netbook from Fujitsu has finally been put up for sale on the company’s website. This netbook does not have amazingly different components but its styling and design makes it stand out from the usual fare on the market. It has nicely rounded corners, smooth edges and an overall nicely designed body that will definitely make people take notice when you whop the tiny thing out.
