SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- Fujitsu Computer Systems today announced the Stylistic® ST5020 Tablet PC with new features to address the performance needs of highly mobile professionals. The Stylistic® ST5020 Tablet PC features a faster processor, up to 9 hours of battery life, wide viewing angle and dedicated graphic chipset for sharper imaging and better sound capabilities. The Tablet PC is available with a choice of integrated wireless connectivity and optional Bluetooth® technology.

The Stylistic ST5020 Tablet PC is designed to keep data protected with a number of security features. A built-in biometric fingerprint swipe sensor eliminates the need for managing multiple passwords to access the network, email accounts or other protected systems. By simply swiping their finger, users can quickly and easily access their system and online protected accounts. A dedicated SmartCard slot is also included and can be used to verify identification or make secure online transactions. Another value added feature of the Stylistic ST5020 Tablet PC is the innovative Trusted Platform Module (TPM). TPM is a powerful, embedded security system that protects sensitive data from unauthorized users and enables secure authentication.

The Stylistic ST5020 Tablet PC is powered by an Intel® Pentium® M Processor ULV 733 operating at 1.1 GHz. The integration of this processor from Intel is designed for low power consumption, which translates into a cooler running Tablet PC with long battery life. To further complement the Stylistic ST5020 Tablet PC, Fujitsu equipped the slate with 6-cell standard battery (4,800 mAh). This coupled with the Intel processor will deliver up to 6(1) hours of computing time. A high-capacity 9-cell battery (7,200 mAh) is also available, providing up to 9(1) hours of computing time.

"As pioneers in the pen computing arena, Fujitsu is well positioned to identify user needs and meet our customers' requirements," said Paul Moore, director of product marketing for mobile computing at Fujitsu Computer Systems. "The Stylistic Series of Tablet PCs has consistently offered exceptional value through reliability, uncompromising performance and exceptional battery life allowing for an uninterrupted work day. The Stylistic ST5020 Tablet PC continues to build on the company's expertise and incorporates several enhancements for increased productivity and seamless integration into any IT infrastructure."

Users will appreciate the 12.1-inch display with wider viewing angles. The Stylistic ST5020 Tablet PC can be viewed at up to 180-degree angles, allowing for a consistent image quality at varying angles and within difficult lighting conditions. The Tablet PC manages to maintain a svelte 3.5-pound weight that users will find easy to manage whether walking the office halls or working in the field.

For high-speed connectivity in any environment, the Stylistic ST5020 Tablet PC comes standard with a Gigabit Ethernet LAN (10/100/1000 Base-T/TX), allowing users to connect at speeds of 1,000-megabit-per-second. Users can also choose between Atheros Super AG(TM) wireless (802.11a+b/g) LAN or Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection (802.11b/g). The Stylistic ST5020 Tablet PC also includes dual microphones with IntelliSonic(TM) noise cancellation.
