The latest in its line of innovative touch screen notebooks,
the Fujitsu LifeBook B2610 comes equipped with the energy

new B and C series come with more hard disk space (30GB
for the LifeBook B2610 and C2010 while the LifeBook C2111
comes with 40GB) for all your information storage needs.
Navigation Made Easy
The LifeBook B2610 is a portable marketing tool ideal
for carrying out face-to-face presentations. Draw your
audiences attention to important information by
tapping and selecting options on the 10.4 XGA TFT
Colour Display. The panels low reflectivity makes
it extremely effective when conducting outdoor sales calls.
The LifeBook B2610 also allows sales professionals to
close deals quickly. Simply call up a contract on the
touch screen display and get your client to sign on the
dotted line. Intelligent Features for Effective
Presentations
The LifeBook B2610 is also equipped with another Fujitsu
first the innovative, intelligent 360-degree rotational
feature. The easy rotation of the screen display to the
left, right or even 180 degrees allows all participants
seated around the notebook to view the screen comfortably
without having to strain their necks and vision. In addition,
the LifeBook B2610 can be laid open to a full 180-degree
plane position, facilitating easy simultaneous viewing
by multiple participants.
Engineered for Security and Convenience
The B series also offers user security and protection
in the form of a programmable Security Panel. The four
security buttons yield a number lock with more than 800,000
possible combinations, effectively preventing unauthorized
access and usage of the notebook, even in its standby
mode. To add to user convenience, four One-Touch Application
Launch buttons have also been created. These buttons can
be user-programmed for hassle-free and speedy access to
the Internet, email applications and other favourite applications.
This is Entertainment!
The two new LifeBook C series notebooks, on the other
hand, offer all-in-one multimedia performance an entirely
different user experience. The LifeBook C2010 offers an
impressive 14.1-inch XGA TFT colour display while the
LifeBook C2111s massive 15-inch display offers sharp
quality graphics. Both displays deliver clearer, brighter
and richer images during movie playback.
For superior video editing, smooth DVD playback and the
ability to run graphics-intensive applications, both the
C series feature advanced ATI® Mobility-M6C with 16MB
of integrated video memory. Adding to the notebooks
entertainment prowess is their ability to support Dolby
Digital surround sound.Multimedia Hub Offers Wide Variety
of Connectors
In addition, both C series notebooks come with an array
of I/O interfaces - an IEEE 1394 FireWire port that allows
lightning fast digital video and data transfer, an SPDIF
port, an S-type Video-Out port and four USB ports. Users
can easily download music to an MD player using the SPDIF
port, or use the notebook as a VCD-player by connecting
the S Video-Out port to television sets or projectors.
The unprecedented four USB ports enable increased expandability,
so that users can simultaneously connect up to four devices
which could be a mouse, keyboard, digital camera,
scanner, zip drive or printer directly to their
LifeBook without the need for an USB hub.
Both the C2010 and C2111 feature built-in modems and Ethernet
ports as part of their standard configuration, rendering
them perfect for any kind of networking environment.
