Panasonic continues its forte on sub notebook arena. The latest entry of Panasonic Let’s Note R7 is yet another example of Panasonic going above and beyond our expectations. Not satisfied with simply releasing one of the most durable sub notebooks ever (in the form of last year’s R5), Panasonic has created a unit capable of resisting up to 110 lbs. of weight, Vista Business installed and now upgraded Core 2 Duo 1.2Ghz processor!

The Panasonic R7 offers an unrivaled 2 pound usability experience. Its diminutive 9.0(W) x 7.2(L) x 0.9~1.6(H) inch footprint accommodates a 10.4″ XGA TFT and a 17mm key pitch keyboard–giving you a much larger keyboard and screen than anything in its weight class. The 8 hour standard battery life is remarkable (even when reduced to a real world 4-5 hours of use). The R7’s utilization of the latest ultra-low voltage Intel Core Duo processor helps to give long battery life while delivering significant performance.

The Panasonic R7 comes in a variety of colors and gives you an ultra portable experience with some unique features like a circular touch pad, 8 hour battery life, and rugged construction.

Panasonic R7, the smallest unit of the My Lets / Toughbook new line, is ultra-portable computing at its best. Light, durable, fast, and sleek: the Panasonic R6 offers a powerful package with an outstanding battery life: up to 8 hours (real world usage)! Top this off with the ability to sustain a drop from 30 cm* (10 cm when system is running), and you have a true “Toughbook.” A clever little product from an ingenious manufacturer, the Panasonic R7 is sure to be one of the biggest hits in both Japan and the select sub notebook users of the U.S.

The Panasonic R7’s design includes a glowing power key, chrome-rimmed circular touch pad, grooved inner surface, and 11 different color options. (Standard silver, orange, brown, pink, green, platinum, black, blue, white, and red). The R7 also has a wireless on/off switch so you can conserve battery life when not using the wireless.

The (2mb on-chip cache) and 2.0GB RAM (max) provides plenty of power. The mobile Intel GM965 Express chipset with 224mb shared VRAM also provides plenty of graphics performance.

Panasonic R7 Review:-

# boards.bootsnall Reviews: - Does anyone out there have the Panasonic R7? I just bought it on e-bay from Japan but am now worried that it may not work in the United States or with the voltage converters I have for traveling as I think Japan uses a different voltage standard (100 V)? Any advice is appreciated - thanks!
