Fujitsu’s P8010 notebook caught the eye of jkOTR reader Nomo and I can see why. This lappy offers an LED backlit 12.1-inch WXGA display, integrated optical drive, four three USB ports, SD card reader and PC Card slot, yet weighs 2.9-pounds. It’s powered by a low-voltage Intel Core 2 Duo, the SL7100 rated at 1.2 GHz and starts out with a GB of RAM. There’s two memory slots that can each handle up to a 2 GB stick, but the base model uses a 512 MB module in each. An 80 GB, 5400 RPM SATA drive also comes in the base model, but you can go up to 200 GB of storage from there. Fujitsu rates the 6-cell, 8700 mAh at 6.5 hours, but I suspect the real world time would be more like five. Still, that kind of battery life thanks to the choice of CPU combined with LED backlighting on the display might get you through a full day of computing; a spare battery would surely do it.Prices start at $1,699 for a P8010 running Microsoft Windows XP Professional but of course you can bump the specs to include Vista (at no extra charge), more memory or storage. I like the standard options included on all models at these prices: integrated webcam, Bluetooth, 802.11a/b/g/n, and fingerprint reader.
