I'm returning mine and paying the extra few hundred bucks for a better tablet...
OKAY if you don't need the tablet function that much, but horrible for note taking or drawing.
The good: Good battery; pretty/shiny; functions; not terribly slow.
The bad: Uses a passive digitizer. Before I bought this thing, "passive digitizer" meant nothing to me, so I'll explain. [EXPLAIN] Normally a tablet pc uses a stylus which requires a battery so that the stylus can interact with the screen. That's called an "active digitizer" for better detail/functionality. A passive digitizer means that the tablet uses a glorified plastic finger for a stylus.[/EXPLAIN] Writing is laggy, not very accurate or smooth. Also, it has an issue that if you rest your hand on the screen when you write sometimes it will sometimes confuse the two signals for a jumbled stroke.
The Fujitsu T1010 has tablet features and a somewhat striking price point, but the rest of the package feels a bit lifeless.
RRP: AU$2299.00
All I want for Xmas is Telstra pricing
Sick of broken tender sites

Loving my new Fujitsu Lifebook T1010 laptop/ tablet pc!
The good: Build quality, looks, design, connection, speed, display, size, battery life, keyboard, durability, product as a whole This computer is definitely built to last, and built just right; you can feel that it is from the very first time you handle it and pick it up and hold it.
The bad: The only con that I see is that it doesn't use or have internal WWAN connection; but that isn't really a big deal, because I dont really use WWAN; but it is worth mentioning, because I would still love to have that option; I guess I just love for things to have all the bells and whistles. Other than that minor thing, this laptop is flawless, sleek and sexy looking, and built to last.
