Okay okay so it’s not a touchscreen laptop but meet the O2 Joggler, it’s a very interesting piece of touchscreen tech that is going to be on the market very soon.

The O2 Joggler

The Joggler is like a PDA on steroids, its a calendar with a difference. Designed to be like a digital organiser for the home it allows you to input important dates and events then gives reminders and alerts. Whilst it isn’t being your digital secretary the Joggler can give news, weather and traffic reports or double up as a video player or digi-photo frame. We also understand that the Joggler will in future also have texting capabilities to add to it’s array of talents.

Not a touchscreen laptop true but a great piece of touchscreen tech and its out this month, we want one!


Panasonic Toughbook CF19

Panasonic Toughbook

The Panasonic Toughbook CF19 is a touchscreen laptop which has been around for a few years now and has a reputation as being an almost indestructible beast. Panasonic have realised that the Toughbook CF19 was starting to fall behind in terms of spec and so have upgraded it with some much needed grunt.

The new edition Toughbook CF19 still sports a touchscreen and also has a punchier processor in the form of a 1.2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. RAM in the new machine has been bumped up to 2GB and it also has an 80GB shock-proofed hard drive.

The rugged exterior has stayed and you can rest easy in the knowledge that your Toughbook has been drop-tested to 3ft and has up to 9 hours battery life whilst you are out in the wild. Using magnesium alloy in the casing has helped Panasonic to keep the weight down so this laptop is as mobile as possible.

The Panasonic Toughbook CF19 has got a whole lot more powerful and it still remains the Bear Grylls of the laptop world.
