Hi,
I've basically narrowed down my choices to two tablet PCs, the Fujitsu T4220 and the Dell Latitude XT.
The T4220's specs:
- Core 2 Duo T7500 2.2GHz
- 1GB DDR2 667MHz (which I'm planning to max out to 4GB afterwards)
- Intel's X3100 integrated graphics
- XGA 1024x768 screen resolution
- Wacom active digitizer touchscreen technology
- Better battery life than the dell
- 120GB 2.5" 5400rpm HDD (plan to upgrade this to 250GB maybe)
The Latitude XT's specs:
- Core 2 Duo U7700 1.33GHz
- 3GB DDR2 667MHz
- ATI Radeon Xpress 1250 integrated graphics
- WXGA 1280x800 screen resolution
- N-trig capacitive touchscreen technology (something like iPhone's touchscreen I hear, haven't really seen it for myself)
- Weaker battery life than the fujitsu
- 120GB 1.8" 5400rpm HDD
Both laptops come with Windows Vista Business 32-bit. There are other specs I left out from both which I don't consider important.
Anyway, based on what I could gather from the net, the Dell supposedly has one of the clearest screens for a tablet PC, but the Fujitsu is no slouch either, if perhaps slightly behind the Dell from the sound of it. But I can't find any direct comparisons between them.
Specs and price wise, the Fujitsu will come to a couple hundred bucks cheaper compared to the Dell where I'm planning to get it from despite all the upgrades I have in mind. The only thing holding me back is the screen resolution.
Do note that the primary reason I'm getting the tablet is actually for overseas studies I'm going for soon so I do not want to buy a larger screen laptop, and cannot wait for new models to come out, unfortunately. But I do want something which will enable me to work with Photoshop CS3 and Lightroom comfortably.
So if it were you, would you go for Dell's better screen clarity and resolution, or Fujitsu's better specs?
