Fujitsu's new compact laptop

Fujitsu has deployed a new laptop in the Loox P subseries of its FMV Biblo systems. At 8.9 inches the P70WN is barely larger than a UMPC, and can effectively operate as one, since the screen can rotate and flip backwards, turning the computer into a touchscreen tablet complete with stylus. Weight is a mere 2.2 pounds. Specifications are otherwise fairly modest, with 1280x768 resolution, 80GB of hard drive space, and the choice of Windows Vista Home as the operating system. The laptop is not expected to be released outside of east Asia. [via Akihabara News]
