The good: Extremely portable; sturdy screen hinge; strong performance for a single-core processor; biometric fingerprint reader.
The bad: Tiny keyboard and screen; less battery life than comparable systems; can't be configured with a dual-core processor; cheap stylus; lacks a built-in optical drive.
The bottom line: The easy-to-carry Fujitsu LifeBook P1610 is simply the most portable tablet on the market, but there are better, less-expensive options for those who can carry a bit more weight.
