An old-fashioned convertible tablet is hard to come by these days, what with the Apple iPad 2 and hoards of other slates dominating the tablet scene. Fujitsu is one of the few companies that still make convertible tablets, complete with a digitized pen...

Intel Core i5 is no Atom. Lightweight. Good resolution and screen. Digitized layer with pen included. Business-class features.

Paltry battery life. An extended battery is not available. Needs more RAM. Too expensive.

The Fujitsu Lifebook T580 is well-equipped convertible tablet for its size, but it's expensive and lacks a bigger battery option. Buy it now...

The biggest downside is the price. The base configuration, which includes 32-bit Windows 7, a fairly slow CPU, just 2GB of RAM and the 160GB hard drive, is nearly £1000. That's a really steep price for adding a touch interface. In the end, this is a p...

Tablet PCs are all the rage now but is there a place for a convertible Tablet notebook like the Fujitsu Lifebook T580? THERE is a real surge in Tablets these days thanks to the phenomenal success of Apple's iPad, but the idea of a slate-like touchsc...

A full operating system; built-in keyboard; decent performance; responsive multi-touch screen; included stylus.

Windows 7 still needs work for fingerbased navigation; screen could be better; expensive.
