Fujutsu P4210 Core Duo convertible Tablet PC available

TabletPCReviewSpot tips us off that Fujitsu’s P4210 Tablet PC is now available. Among one of the many new features is a unique bi-directional swivel hinge for the screen so that you can rotate the display in either direction. Pricing for a basic package starts around $1,729 and includes:

• 1.66 GHz Core Due processor
• 512 MB of 667 MHz RAM
• 40 GB S-ATA hard drive at 5200 RPM
• 12.1-inch XGA screen with viewing angles up to 160-degrees
• XP Tablet Edition and OneNote
• Intel PRO Wireless 802.11a/b/g
• Fingerprint reader
• Dual array microphone
• 6-cell Lithium Ion battery
• Modular DVDCD-RW optical drive
• Intel GMA 950 for graphics with up to 224 MB of memory shared

You can bump up the specs and price to include a view-anywhere screen, faster Core Duo, increased storage, Bluetooth and more. With the graphics bump to the GMA 950, which can use more shared memory, this looks to be a solid Tablet PC candidate for Windows Vista and all of its glass glory.
