Panasonic Unveils World's Lightest 12.1-Inch Notebook Tablet, the Toughbook C1 With Core i5 CPU
Panasonic has just announced what they believe is world's lightest notebook tablet. It weighs just 3.2 pounds and manages to have some sort of rugged edge about it as well which is pretty impressive. The Toughbook C1 has a Core i5-520 2.4GHz CPU, a 250GB HDD (rugged), a 12.1-inch multitouch LED-backlit display with a 1,280 x 800 resolution, up to 8GB of DDR3 RAM, WiFi a/b/g/n, a Qualcomm Gobi chipset, and Windows 7. Apparently, this notebook tablet will be able to shrug off 30-inch drops since it's got a triple-hinge design - whatever that is.
The Panasonic Touchbook C1 doesn't come cheap though since it's got a starting price of $2,499. It's scheduled to launch in June of this year, but damn, that's a hefty price tag.
