The new range of Panasonic Tablet PCs are targeted to a specific set of users. All models in the range are branded Toughbooks. That is a good name because the computers are made to withstand tough treatment by users that require rugged mobile computers to take with them out into the field.
The Toughbook computers provide and easy to see, clear display in full daylight. They are also designed to protect the three components most at risk in a mobile computer. These are the keyboard, hard disk drive and the display panel. Toughbooks can go the distance. They can survive kicks, bumps and hard drops. Panasonic has launched three Toughbook groups being the Medical Rugged group, the Business Rugged plus the All Rugged group.
Take, for example, the Business Rugged models CF-C1 and CF-51. Of these two convertible tablet PCs, the CF-51 is the larger with a 15.1 inch display panel. It weighs in complete with one battery pack at 3.4 kgs (7.5lbs), more than twice the weight of the CF-C1 (which weighs about 1.47 kgs or 3.2 lbs). It is designed to survive liquid spills, free-fall drops and even being stepped on by a titan.
Inadvertent liquid spillages on a CF-52 will not damage the beast. The computer has a unique drainage system that protects the 87-key keyboard and touchpad. A full 170-milliliter glass can spill onto the unit and flow out through draining channels without damaging the computer. All electronics remain dry, unharmed and functional.
The CF-31 can survive a drop of 180 cm (71 inches) without damage. The hard drive is positioned on a shock-absorbing damper that absorbs shocks. The computer is encased in an unbreakable magnesium alloy casing. The casing is sealed with a flexible elastomeric sealant that prevents water and dust entering the casing to the most stringent industry standards (IP65). All this protection is achieved at low weight. The CF-31 weighs just 3.72 kg (8 lbs), it is only marginally heavier than the CF-52 which comes in at 3.4 kgs (7.5 lbs).
The integrated Intel Core i5-520M processor delivers the highest calculating performance with highly efficient energy consumption. A lithium-ion battery provides up to 11 hours of operating time. The CF-31 also incorporates an anechoic chamber, being a non-echoing (or an-echoic) space designed to prevent reflection of electromagnetic waves. This design together with the dual diversity wireless antennae in the display housing combine to allow the CF-31 to deliver optimum data transfer and superior Wi-Fi Internet connectivity.
The CF-31 operating system is Microsoft Windows 7. The unit has a 160GB hard disk, 2GB main memory (DDR3 SDRAM) expandable to 8GB. Interfacing ability includes with four USB ports, one serial port, one modem port (RJ 11), one LAN port (RJ 45) and one external display port and one HDMI port (Type A).
In summary, Panasonic Tablet PCs offers mobile computer users style, durability and functionality and rugged good looks for mobile computer users. As a final point users might note that, in common with most computers, the AC adaptor consumes power even if it is not connected to the computer. The AC adaptor consumes a maximum of 0.2 watts simply if it is plugged into an AC outlet without being connected to the computer.
