Digital Home Thoughts: Fujitsu LifeBook UH900 Now Available

"Unlike its higher priced Japanese counterpart, the LOOX U/G90, the 5.6" multitouch-screened UH900 is available in just a single configuration that includes a 1.6GHz Intel Atom Z530 processor, 2GB of RAM, 62GB SSD, Windows 7 Home Premium, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth, and GPS. Carrying an MSRP of $999, the 1.1-pound computer is currently being offered as part of a special that gets buyers $150 off with a coupon code and mail-in rebate, free shipping, and either a 160GB Edge DiskGo portable hard drive or a Lexmark X2670 all-in-one printer."

I like the form factor, but I'd like to see a larger screen in the same device. Also, those USB ports on the front seem like they would get in the way of trying to type. Fix that, and make it convert into a tablet at the same price point, and you'd have a total winner. Otherwise, as cool as it is most consumers will select a slightly larger netbook at less than half the price.
