`Fujitsu LifeBook T3000 Tablet PC review: Fujitsu LifeBook
`T3000 Tablet PC
`Fujitsu LifeBook T
`Tablet PC
`6 min read
`Review summary
`For Fujitsu, the company behind some top-selling tablets, the writing was apparently on the slate. That
`design may be fine for niche markets, but it takes a notebooklike convertible to lure a broader audience.
`Enter the LifeBook T series, Fujitsu's first convertible that runs Windows XP Tablet PC Edition.
`Though it's a touch on the heavy side for an ultraportable with no internal optical drives, this $2,049
`Centrino-based convertible delivers surprisingly good performance and nearly four hours of battery life.
`The LifeBook T uses the same center-hinge design found on other convertibles from Acer and
`Toshiba; to switch between notebook and tablet modes, you just swivel the screen 180 degrees and fold
`it back over the keyboard. When folded up, the T measures 11.5 by 9.3 by 1.5 inches and weighs
`slightly more than four pounds--similar in size and weight to the Toshiba Portégé 3505 but bulkier than
`the
`Acer TravelMate C, not to mention most standard ultraportables.

`The T uses
`centrl hinge for
`swiveling nd folding
`the screen.
`The keybord is slightly
`sggy.
`The center hinge is sti, especially on a new unit, and the lid is hard to hook with the same thumb that
`opens the clasp. As a result, we accidentally let the T slip and bang on the desk a couple of times
`until we got used to opening it with both hands. When you swivel the screen, the T changes
`automatically from Landscape mode to Portrait, but if you prefer Landscape in tablet mode, a Fujitsu
`utility lets you set that as the default.
`The 12.1-inch display is somewhat smaller than the lid can accommodate, because tablets require a wide
`bezel for buttons, status lights, and a slot that holds the stylus. The default resolution is just 1,024×768
`pixels (XGA), but the screen is surprisingly bright (touch screens tend to be dark because they have extra
`electronics between the light source and your eyes), and it displays crisp, clean text. The bezel buttons
`switch quickly and easily between Landscape and Portrait modes, but an adjacent button that
`purportedly opens the task manager (the equivalent of pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete) barely works.
`The T has a slightly saggy but quiet and responsive keyboard and a standard-issue touchpad with
`left and right mouse buttons separated by a scroll button. A tiny mono speaker just above the keyboard
`is barely audible even at maximum volume; the display covers it in tablet mode, but you won't really
`notice. Instead of the standard sliding latches, the battery is secured using tight clips that are dicult to
`pry o. The LifeBook T series comes in two basic versions. The T models are full-fledged
`Centrino systems with both 1.GHz Pentium M processors and up and Intel Pro/Wireless 2100 802.11b
`network adapters. The TD models use the same Pentium M chips but with an 802.11g adapter from
`Broadcom. Both the T and TD use the same 12.1-inch XGA display and are somewhat
`customizable, with recommended configurations ranging from $1,800 to more than $2,000.
`The T that we tested included a 1.GHz Pentium M processor, MB of memory, a GB hard
`drive, and an integrated Intel graphics controller. The low-power processor helps prolong the working life
`of the smallish battery--the 3600mAh battery weighs only 0.6 pounds and costs $98, so carrying an
`extra is no burden if you plan to be away from AC for longer than four hours.
`The T has no internal drives, but you can select from a line of external USB drives, including CD-
`ROM ($150), combination DVD/CDRW ($349), and floppy ($30). Aside from the dual Type II/single Type
`III PC Card slots typically not found on ultraportables, all of the connectors are standard fare, and they
`include two USB 2.0 ports, Ethernet and modem, and VGA ports. A button on the back edge controls
`power to the Centrino-standard Wi-Fi "b" wireless network transmitter. With its 1.GHz Pentium M, the
`Fujitsu LifeBook T has the fastest processor of any tablet PC that we've yet tested. And it's the
`fastest tablet we've tested. The Acer TravelMate C Tablet is a distant second but still oers up good
`mobile performance, especially for a MHz Pentium M-based system. The HP Compaq Tablet PC
`TC is even lower on the mobile-performance pole, scoring nearly 30 points lower than the LifeBook
`T. This system should have no problems running your oce and content-creation apps in an
`unplugged state.

`To measure mobile application performance and battery life, CNET Labs uses BAPCo's MobileMark2002.
`MobileMark measures both application performance and battery life concurrently using a number of
`popular applications (Microsoft Word 2002, Microsoft Excel 2002, Microsoft PowerPoint 2002, Microsoft
`Outlook 2002, Netscape Communicator 6.0, WinZip Computing WinZip 8.0, McAfee VirusScan 5.13,
`Adobe Photoshop 6.0.1, and Macromedia Flash 5.0).
`Performance analysis written by CNET Labs assistant lab manager Eric Franklin.
`System configurtions:
`Acer TrvelMte C Tblet
`Windows XP Tablet; MHz Intel Pentium M; MB DDR SDRAM MHz; Intel 82852/92855 GM/GME
`Graphics Controller (up to MB shared); IBM Travelstar GB GN 4,200rpm
`Fujitsu LifeBook T Tblet
`Windows XP Tablet; 1.GHz Intel Pentium M; MB DDR SDRAM MHz; Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME
`Graphics Controller (up to MB shared); Toshiba MKGAS GB 4,200rpm
`HP Compq Tblet PC TC
`Windows XP Tablet; GHz Intel Pentium M; MB DDR SDRAM MHz; Nvidia GeForce4 420 Go MB;
`Fujitsu MHTAT GB 4,200rpm The LifeBook T posted great battery life, thanks to its 10.V,
`3,600mAh (WHr) battery. Although the HP Compaq Tablet PC TC, with its 11.V, 3,600mAh (WHr)
`battery lasted 11 minutes longer, the LifeBook T's battery life is more impressive, as this notebook
`has a much faster processor that sucks more juice from its battery. Also, Fujitsu did not have to sacrifice
`mobile performance to get the LifeBook T to last more than three and a half hours. The Acer
`TravelMate C Tablet could not compete because of its low-power, 14.V, 1,800mAh (WHr) battery.
`Battery life is not a problem here. The Fujitsu LifeBook T was able to last a good while, at the same
`time keeping its performance high while running oce and content-creation apps.

`Fujitsu MHTAT GB 4,200rpm Service and reliability are always primary concerns with business
`notebooks, and that is especially true of convertible tablets with swiveling hinges. Given that, Fujitsu's
`policies are hardly reassuring. The company provides only one year of depot repair and one year of toll-
`free, 24/7 tech support. Extending the warranty to three years costs an extra $150; special Screen
`Damage Protection, for those times you poke the stylus through the LCD, costs $150 for one year or
`$383 for three years. Onsite service is another extracost option.
`Fujitsu includes a getting-started poster that introduces neophytes to the notebook/tablet transition and
`a card that covers remapping everything for left-handers, calibrating the pen's digitizing function, using
`the onscreen keyboard in XP Tablet PC Edition, and learning the basics of using a computer without a
`keyboard or a mouse. A longer manual provides more general information, such as how to install extra
`memory, along with tips on battery management and troubleshooting.
`To find out more about how this product's warranty really stacks up and what you should look for in
`terms of service and support, take a look at CNET's hardware warranty explainer.
