Fujitsu has just announced updates to the tiny P-series tablet. Designed primarily for use in vertical markets (think health care and manufacturing), this system is also sure to appeal to buyers who want something as portable as a Netbook but are willing to pay more for a more thorough feature set.

The 8.9-inch, 2.2-pound LifeBook P1630 updates the P1620 with Centrino 2 components, including an Intel Core 2 Duo SU9300 Ultra Low Voltage Processor and 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity. The new model also includes a 1.3-megapixel Webcam, an optional solid-state drive, and optional Bluetooth connectivity; WWAN will be offered as an option in 2009.

The company claims that the LifeBook P1630 can run up to 6.2 hours with the high-capacity battery. Starting at US$2,179, the tablet is available immediately. Over in Asia, the P1630 will ship in the later part of the year.
