Fujitsu LifeBook UH900 quietly unveiled

Fujitsu
Fujitsu's latest addition to its LifeBook range of mobile computing devices bears very little semblance to your average netbook. Why am I not surprised? Would-be netbooks these days are more 'laptop' or 'smartbook' than anything else. The Fujitsu LifeBook UH900 would probably fall into the smartbook category. It sports a WXGA resolution screen (1366×768) on a 5.6-inch display. Now, read that again in case you missed the part where you're supposed to say, "What? Are they insane?!"

Yeah, it looks like they pretty much are, or at least they intend to drive a few people insane with that mind-boggling combo of screen size and resolution that's even crazier than what the Sony Vaio P came with. The screen will support multi-touch input, by the way, and other features include an Intel Atom Z530 processor, SSD storage, 3.5G and Bluetooth wireless connectivity.

UMTS and non-UMTS versions of the Fujitsu LifeBook UH900 will be introduced starting January of next year. It will be available in Mocha Black, Fiery Red and Vintage Gold. Fujitsu's mum about its price at the moment, but you can expect it to be a bit more expensive than your 'average' netbook due to it having a multi-touch, high-res screen, SSD storage and a range of wireless features.
