أعلنت شركة بانسونيك اليوم عن الحاسب المحمول Toughbook S9 والتي تقول
فيه أولا أنه يعتبر الأقل وزنا بالعالم من فئة 12.1 أنش والذي يحمل معه
أيضا محرك الأقراص DVD ويبلغ وزنه فقط 3 باوند وأذا قمت بالبحث عن نفس هذه
المواصفات وبهذا الوزن ستجد كلام بانسونيك صحيح .المذهل في الأمر أنه يملك
مواصفات قويه مثل المعالج Core i5-520M والذاكرة العشوائية 2 جيجابايت
والقرص الصلب 320 جيجابايت كما أن الجهاز تم تصنيعه من مواد خفيفة الوزن
وتتحمل أقصى الظروف الجويه .المؤسف في الأمر هنا أنه سيكلفك 2499 دولار

PANASONIC INTRODUCES THE TOUGHBOOK® S9 – WORLD’S LIGHTEST 12.1″ LAPTOP WITH DVD DRIVE
Ideal Road Warrior Device Features Intel® Core™ i5 Processor, 11 Hour Standard Battery and 30″ Drop Rating in 3lb Package
Secaucus, NJ, September 28, 2010 – Panasonic Solutions Company,
provider of collaboration, information-sharing and decision-support
solutions for government and commercial enterprises, today introduced
the Panasonic Toughbook® S9, the world’s lightest 12.1″ laptop with an
integrated DVD drive. Powered by the Intel® Core™ i5-520M vPro™
processor, delivering up to 11 hours of battery life with a standard
battery and weighing only 3.0 pounds, the Toughbook S9 offers high
performance in a lightweight and highly mobile form factor that is ideal
for road warriors and mobile workers in a variety of markets. The new
notebook offers exceptional durability, optional Gobi2000™ mobile
broadband and a host of other features designed to maximize return on
investment and reduce the total cost of ownership.
Real World Durability
In order to withstand the demands of a highly mobile work environment,
the Toughbook S9 has been designed to endure drops, bumps and spills.
The notebook is engineered to survive a 30″ (just over the typical
height of a desk or table) drop to the base of the unit while operating.
Despite its widescreen LED display, the Toughbook S9 successfully
survives drops of 12″ from any angle using the MIL-STD-810G drop
procedure. The unique Panasonic spill-resistant keyboard design protects
against liquid spills of up to 6 ounces (200 cc), and both the lid and
base of the notebook are designed to withstand more than 220 lbs (100
kg) of pressure. In addition, Panasonic’s commitment to quality-at both
the component and finished goods level-results in a total of more than
500 quality checks and tests during and after production.
Embedded Wireless Connectivity
The Toughbook® S9 offers a variety of embedded wireless technologies,
including Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n, Bluetooth® 2.1 and optional Gobi2000™
mobile broadband technology from Qualcomm. Gobi simplifies complex
multi-carrier wireless deployments for IT departments and allows mobile
employees improved connectivity options while traveling at home or
abroad. The Toughbook S9 will be certified on the Sprint and Verizon
Wireless networks, allowing workers to stay connected at all times.
Security Options Vital for Mission-Critical Computing
The Panasonic Toughbook S9 notebook provides significant data security
features including trusted platform module (TPM) security chip version
1.2, the Computrace theft protection agent in the BIOS, Intel Anti-Theft
technology, a cable lock slot, password security and an optional
fingerprint reader.
"Increased workforce mobility can improve efficiency and drive profit
as long as the mobile device on which your business depends does not
become a burden to your IT department,” said Kyp Walls, director of
product management, Panasonic Solutions Company. "The only way to ensure
you maximize your mobile computer investment is to purchase a device
with proven reliability. The Toughbook brand has an average annual
failure rate in the low single digits, while most commercial-grade
laptops have double digit failure rates. Not only will the new Toughbook
S9 provide exceptional reliability, it will also deliver the light
weight, long battery life, connectivity and performance needed to
satisfy the most demanding mobile users.”
