Intel's Ivy Bridge processors are invading the rugged notebooks as well. After Durabook unveils its Ivy Bridge-equipped U12Ci, it is now Panasonic's turn to beef up its Toughbook line with the latest and fastest among Intel's processors.
The Panasonic CF-19 convertible notebook features a 3.3GHz Core i5 processor, a 10.1-inch screen (which you can opt as a touchscreen upon purchase), 500GB hard drive (with SSD options), a and some USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports. There is even an HSPA+ upgrade available. And since this is ruggedly made, expect this device to withstand the harshest of elements and “accidental” drops.
It basically appears like the Toughbook 19 but with a bunch of Intel upgrades on the inside. The rugged laptop will start shipping in Europe this July with an MSRP of 2,950 euros (about US$3,727). No word yet on Stateside availability.
