    [​IMG][​IMG]
    Fujitsu today introduced its latest netbook, the LifeBook MH380. It has a 10.1-inch display (1366x768), weighs less than 3 lbs, and is powered by Intel's N450 Atom processor (1.66GHz). Fujitsu claims the MH380 can get seven hours of life out of its six-cell battery. Other features of the MH380 include Windows 7 Starter, 1GB of RAM, and a 250GB hard drive.

    The LifeBook MH380 will be available next month for $449.

    The scroll "wheel" on this netbook is probably the most distinguishing feature... I wonder how useful it really is. I wish the 6-cell was flush like the Dell Inspiron Mini 10's.

    Engadget has a nice angled picture that shows the scroll divot.

    This netbook has it's own distinctive look.
    Love the new scroll wheel, now I have a place to put my boiled egg when surfing the web.
    Thanks Fujitsu! :rolleyes:

    Finally, a built-in scroll wheel. :) I'm surprised that it has taken so long for someone to do this. It will make the widescreen format more user-friendly.

    The front view reminds me of the original Acer Gemstone notebooks. I'm not exactly a fan.

    I like the scroll wheel feature though, that is especially useful given the limited resolution.
