Fujitsu’s P7230: now in pink with Core Duo ULV

Filed under:

Fujitsu looks to be trying to get as much out of its P7230 ultraportable as possible, with the company now offering a bit more choice in the processor department, along with a new limited edition pink model for those tired of the standard un-colorful fare. Somewhat curiously, the most the pink model gets is a Core Duo U1400 Ultra Low Voltage processor, while the standard black model now tops out at a Core Duo U2500 ULV. Otherwise, the two boast mostly similar specs, including a 10.6-inch display, Intel 945GMS Express chipset, 1GB of RAM, and a max 80GB hard drive (though not more than 60GB on the pink model). Each also have the same $1,599 starting price, with the top-end U2500-based model running just over $2,000.

[Thanks, Pete]

MyDean’s FX-1 seven-inch navigation unit does DMB

Filed under: ,

Another day, another Korean-based DMB navigation system — but MyDean’s FX-1 does manage to differentiate itself just enough to keep it from completely blending in. The stylish black frame and thin design emphasize the expansive seven-inch LCD, and while it features the same DMB TV tuning and media playing abilities as everyone else, we can’t fault a firm for tryin’. Per usual, you’ll find a built-in speaker, car mounting options, USB connectivity, an SD slot, stylus, integrated GPS antenna, a wireless remote, a few games thrown in for good measure, and an FM tuner to boot. Sure, there’s nothing here you haven’t seen (multiple times) before, but the â‚©199,000 ($215) pricetag sure looks attractive nonetheless.

AT&T preps landlords for iPhone campers

Filed under:

Those who’ve started taking notes in order to keep track of all the iPhone launch details still floating in can add one more, and thankfully for those worried about their own safety come next Friday, you’ll be relieved to know that this one involves crowd control. Two documents outlining how managers should “prepare landlords for the iPhone launch” explain that stanchions (you know, those annoying cattle herders that keep you in order whilst waiting in the airport) should be made available at almost any cost, so it’s pretty safe to say they know you (and your posse) are coming. Additionally, it’s noted that AT&T stores will be staying open only until 10:00PM unless individual managers choose to keep the overtime clocks a-rollin’, and venues located within enclosed malls will be closing at their normal times. Guess we can’t blame ’em for trying to make us all happy campers.

Pleo ready for US pre-order: $349 for your eventual destruction

Filed under:

Check it US Pleo hopefuls, UGOBE is now taking pre-orders for the hotly anticipated dinobot. The price? Well, it’s not $250, or even $300 as we were originally told. Rather, the cuddly killer is now pegged at $349. Pre-orders can be executed directly from the UGOBE website or via the usual array of on-line retail partners. Unfortunately, you’ll have to wait a few months before your Pleo can “inspire mystery and awe as a companion” — it doesn’t ship until October. Plenty of time to ponder the threat of inviting a robot and dinosaur into your home. Now head on over to Pleoworld for plenty of hot, groaning, dino-on-dino action.

[Thanks, Vladimiro]
