If you read our review of Fujitsu’s P1610 convertible tablet PCand decided you simply had to have one, think about possibly holding that credit card in check for a little while.  Fujitsu have just announced the Lifebook P8240, sharing the same design as the P1610 but with such updated goodies as Vista Business, a choice of 1.2GHz Intel Core Solo U1400 or Celeron M 443 processors and even higher battery life (up to 9.1hrs).

It still has the 8.9-inch touchscreen, running at 1280 x 768 with an Intel GMA 950 graphics processor, and that’s accompanied by 1GB of RAM out of the box, a choice of 80GB hard-drive or 32GB SSD, 802.11a/b/g wireless and the same fingerprint reader from the P1610.

The P8240 weighs about 2.1lbs and should be priced at around $2,190 when it launches.
