Singapore, 20 October 2005 – Fujitsu PC Asia Pacific today launched the new LifeBook P7120 notebook computer – the successor to the award-winning LifeBook P7010. This compact personal companion retains all the multimedia features of its predecessor, except that it flaunts an even slimmer silhouette with an extensive battery life, seamlessly merging style with productivity as never before. Designed for the successful, well-traveled cosmopolitan professional who appreciates the latest technologies and lifestyle trends, this compact mobile companion is guaranteed to turn heads with its cool black exterior.

Mr YS Ng, Vice President, Marketing said “Fujitsu did not rest on our laurels after receiving recognition for the LifeBook P7010. Instead, we stretched the boundaries of technology even further by developing a finer notebook that balances weight, performance and battery life. Anytime, anywhere computing is truly enabled with an impressive battery life, biometric security and a lightweight form factor, making the P7120 a perfect accessory for the cosmopolitan professional.”

The LifeBook P7120 weighs a mere 1.38kg with built-in modular bay drive and 6-cell battery. Its 10.6-inch SuperFine Wide SXGA LCD display enhances the clarity and brightness of images, enabling greater enjoyment during movie-viewing and multimedia presentations. A lightweight optical drive made up of titanium and aluminium shaves off unnecessary weight. At approximately 24mm, this compact personal companion makes a sleek accessory for your mobile computing needs. Place it in your handbag or briefcase and turn heads naturally with its chic and stylish cool black exterior. An optional port replicator transforms the P7120 into a full-featured notebook, enabling easy docking and undocking from devices without the fuss of reconnecting cables. This compact personal companion sits inconspicuously on the work desk, saving valuable workspace.

Work on your business reports or enjoy your favourite DVD movies while on long haul business or vacation flights. Fujitsu understands that well-traveled professionals require a notebook that can perform for long hours thus, an optional second battery extends total battery life up to 10 hours! Prolong your battery life even further with the Fujitsu propriety power saving utility - the “ECO” button. This utility enables you to switch to energy-saving mode by lowering the power consumption of some components of the computer when not in use, e.g. the various card slots, the optical drive as well as the hard disk and LCD display. This translates to longer productivity hours for professionals constantly on-the-go. The ECO button can also be programmed to launch any other application of your choice.

Fujitsu makes every effort to ensure that our products are manufactured in a bid to promote environment conservation and protection. Our engineers developed the LifeBook P7120 with a minimum level of six hazardous substances, making it RoHS- (Restriction on Hazardous Substances) compliant. This translates to a health-friendly environment for all in the family.

Impress your peers and business associates with the advanced fingerprint login feature that encrypts your fingerprint to your files, folders and confidential documents. Gain instant secure access to the Internet, webmail and other applications via a simple swipe of your pre-registered finger. As an additional bonus, the fingerprint sensor can be programmed as a scroll button with vertical scroll functions.

Thanks to the vast number of digital peripherals on the market today, mobile professionals need their computers to be truly flexible. The LifeBook P7210 features an impressive array of connectivity options including three conveniently placed USB 2.0 ports, an IEEE 1394 port, S-Video port, High Definition (HD) audio in and out jacks, modem access and network connections.
