Fujitsu Lifebook TH40/D convertible tablet launch postponed

Fujitsu Lifebook TH40/D

When Fujitsu introduced the Lifebook TH40/D last month, the company promised that the tablet PC with a slide-out keyboard would go on sale by the end of June, in Japan at least.

Chinese netbook thinks it’s a large phone with a slide-out keyboard

We’ve seen Chinese tablets that look like phones before. But the folks at Shanzhaiben have spotted something a bit different: a netbook that thinks it’s a phone. On paper the computer looks like a typical netbook with a 1.66 GHz Intel Atom N455 processor, 10 inch, 1024 x 600 pixel display, 1GB of RAM, 160GB hard drive, and a 3700mAh…

Gigabyte to unveil ultraportable laptops with Sandy Bridge chips this summer?

Gigabyte has been making mini-laptops with 10 to 12 inch displays for a few years, including some of the first convertible tablet-style netbooks with touchscreen displays. But Gigabyte’s mini-laptops tend to be pricier than the competition, partly because they’re so jam-packed with high performance features. So it doesn’t come as a huge surprise that the company plans to introduce new…

The Dell Inspiron Duo functions both as a standard Intel Atom powered netbook and as a Windows 7 tablet. That’s because the lid has been specially designed so that the screen rests on a hinge inside the upper portion of the laptop.

Chinese netbook takes interesting road to tablethood

The Dell Inspiron Duo is getting a lot of attention these days — not because it’s the first laptop that turns into a tablet when you tilt the screen. It’s because of how you tilt the screen. There’s no swivel letting you tilt the screen left to right like you’ll find on most convertible tablets. Instead, the screen flips inside…

Gigabyte T1005 convertible tablet-style netbook reviewed

The Gigabyte T1005 may look a lot like the T1028X I reviewed last year, but under the hood the new model packs a bit more punch.
