Designed for enterprise users, the Fujitsu‘s Android-based tablet is available in Japan starting mid February 2012. The 7-inch tablet has a code name STYLISTIC M350/CA2 (is that weird?) and measures 120 x 200 x 14 mm. There are three character input mode available, a numeric keypad, QWERTY, and hand-writing that recognizes kanji characters with high accuracy, thanks to the Fujitsu’s unique “NX! Input powered by ATOK” character input technology.
The lightweight STYLISTIC M350/CA2 tablet weighs less than a half kg, it’s so travel friendly, right?. And the long battery life (up to 6.1 hours) will make it more ideal for mobile activities. I know it’s not the longest battery life in the world of mobile devices, I found that the MSI X370 Ultra Laptop boasts up to 10 hours of battery life. I hope Fujitsu will offer better products in the near future.

Samsung and TomTom bring TomTom maps and location content to the Wave 3 smartphone. As a result of the partnership, the Wave 3 allows users to access TomTom’s premium information including navigation, search and find. I don’t know how good the TomTom map in comparison with Google Map, but the TomTom global map coveres over 200 countries with 35 million kilometers of road network. And in addition to the boring 2D maps, the TomTom map also features 3D City Maps and 3D Landmarks that offer a visual orientation aid. Sound good?
We know that location-based content and applications are increasingly important to us, that’s why GPS feature are playing a big role in the smartphone world. In my opinion, we won’t need a dedicated personal GPS device sometime in near future, thanks to the smartphones that already include built-in GPS functionality out of the box.
