Powered by an Intel Core i7-4702MQ processor, this space-saving system is equipped with a 21.5-inch 1920 x 1080 Full HD touchscreen display, an Intel HM86 Express Chipset, an 8GB DDR3 RAM, a 2TB hard drive, an HD webcam, a BDXL drive, an SD card slot, WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0 + HS and runs on Windows 8.1 64-bit OS with Office Home and Business 2013. The ESPRIMO WH77 / M will hit the market from October 18th for around 220,000 Yen (about $2,264). [Fujitsu]

Earlier this morning, we did manage to get a closer look at a couple of Ultrabooks from Japanese manufacturer, Fujitsu, and this time around, here we are with a tablet – the Fujitsu QH77/M. The Fujitsu QH77/M will be a tablet with a twist – where it will arrive with waterproof capability, now how about that? Even more interesting is the fact that the Fujitsu QH77/M tablet will arrive with an extractor fan that will still be able to work when it is underwater.

Measuring 12.5” in size, it will be powered by Intel’s 1.6GHz Core i5-4200U processor which more or less has built up a reputation of its own for requiring a fair degree of cooling to a certain extent most of the time. Needless to say, you can forget about dropping the Fujitsu QH77/M into your bathtub and hope for the extractor fan to move fast enough to propel it under the water’s surface, as the tablet itself is simply too heavy for the extractor fan to generate enough torque so that it will chug along nicely. Even if it could, what would be next? Perhaps the inclusion of a built-in periscope, don’t you think so? Even then, pricing details of the Fujitsu QH77/M remains to be known.

Fujitsu has just added a new member to the LIFEBOOK family, in the form of the Fujitsu LIFEBOOK U904 Ultrabook which will hopefully be able to deliver on its intention of empowering people to achieve their full potential regardless of whether they are at work or at play, without feeling out of control at any time. The Fujitsu LIFEBOOK U904 Ultrabook is touted by Fujitsu to be the “thinnest business Ultrabook” in the market where the 14” form factor is concerned, measuring just 0.61” thin and tipping the scales at 3.15lbs, offering a revolutionary 3,200 x 1,800 IGZO display

Other hardware features include an extended battery runtime, a backlit keyboard, better security features as well as an optional embedded 4G/LTE connectivity to deliver exceptional mobility even when you are outside of the office. There is also an optional port replicator that would deliver the ultimate convenience, alongside a choice of Hybrid Drives (SSHD) or Solid State Drives (SSD), a HD webcam, and Anytime USB Charge.

The best processor that your money can buy with this LIFEBOOK U904 Ultrabook would be the Intel Core i7-4600U processor, while it maxes out at 10GB RAM if you so desire. Depending on where you purchased this from, it will arrive with a 2-year warranty. [Product Page]

[CEATEC 2013] I am quite sure that many of us are familiar with the fictional Tony Stark’s genius, and his artificial intelligence system at home, J.A.R.V.I.S., along with the kind of fancy computing hardware that can be manipulated using his hands alone via gestures, tend to be the kind of wet dream that geeks can only think of. Fujitsu might be working on a device that has the future in mind, in the form of the Fujitsu FingerLink.

This particular solution looks rather magical, where it relies on a top-mounted camera that is capable of converting physical objects into virtual objects. In other words, place the front page of a newspaper under the FingerLink system’s camera, and you can use your finger to trace out a photo or a news snippet, before “pushing” them to the side. When done, remove the newspaper itself, and you can use your fingers to manipulate the virtual cut out newspaper segments that are now in a digital format. This is definitely the kind of system that public and university libraries could make do with to bring a breath of fresh air to the mix, and who knows? We might have a Tony Stark wannabe in the midst who could end up inspired by such technology that he or she ends up as a billionaire, playboy, philanthropist eventually.

For Fujitsu, fingerprint readers on smartphones are old hat; on Android tablets, however, they’re still rare. The company should make those sensors easier to find with its latest Arrows Tab, the FJT21. The 10.1-inch slate uses its fingerprint reader to streamline Android 4.2’s multi-user support, signing anyone in with a swipe. Families can also implement both a simple mode for newcomers and a content-restricted kids’ mode. Fujitsu isn’t leaning solely on sign-in technology to sell its tablet, though. The FJT21 centers on a 2,560 x 1,600 LCD with Gorilla Glass 3 protection; under the hood, there’s a fast 2.2GHz Snapdragon 800 processor, an 8-megapixel rear camera, a 1.3-megapixel front camera and 64GB of expandable storage. Japan’s KDDI will ship an LTE-equipped version of the new Arrows Tab in late November. Sadly, it’s doubtful that we’ll see an equivalent model reach the US.
