Touch Screen Notebook: Fujitsu LifeBook UH900

Fujitsu is well known for making great UMPCs and netbooks. Here is another example of their superb engineering, Fujitsu Lifebook UH900. The UH900 has 5.6-inch sunlight readable display, just like earlier mini Lifebooks, U2010/U820 and U1010/U810. The display has WXGA (1280×800) display that supports multitouch. This thing is tiny, measuring just 20.4 x 10.65 x 2.4 cm.

It runs Intel’s extremely power-sipping Z530 processor that runs at a clock speed of 1.6GHz. The Atom Z530 gives almost same performance as the Intel Atom N280 CPU that runs at 1.66GHz clock speed. For storage, you 62GB SSD. It runs Windows 7 as its operating system. Available in black, red and gold colors.

On the connectivity front, you get 3.5 (WiMax), Bluetooth and WiFi built-in. display and it comes with 62GB SSD and optional integrated 3.5G WWAN. It weighs just 500gm, which makes it lighter than the SONY VAIO P as-well-as SONY VAIO X (slimmest notebook in the world). Given its small size, one would think that it would be difficult to use this micro-netbook, but that is not true. It has 5 thumb-controlled touch button on either sides of the screen. These buttons let you launch programs; rotate screen; perform page up and page down operations. There are webcam too, so that you can do video calls with ease.

To control the mouse pointer on the screen, you can use its small pointer, called the Thumb-glide point. Since, the display supports multi-touch, you can directly tap on the screen to select objects and so on. The keyboard is small and with a doubt, this is not a machine on which you can touch type. This 500gm wonder is made to get into those small pockets to let you take the whole PC-experience with you, everywhere you go.
