There is simply no possible way in which this is a good or even usable product. Even Windows 7 on a tablet is a mistake—and there, you have some room to swipe around. But this the equivalent of a goat driving a bus, or me coaching an Olympic gymnastics team.
Fujitsu claims the little mutant, with its Atom processor, "features functionality identical to that of a PC." Identical. Identical! Really? Identical? Yes, it's identical, sans mouse, touchpad, an actual screen, storage, ports, processing power or any of the other things that make a PC a PC. But perhaps Fujitsu is just working with a more liberal use of language, in which case the F-07C features functionality identical to that of a bicycle.
Oh wait, it does sport a QWERTY keyboard, which flips out for what Fujitsu calls "Windows Mode," otherwise known as "stab me in the fucking face" mode. It will be a joy to use Microsoft Office on this thing, I can tell. Have fun installing any other sort of software on this thing, ever.
And "Phone Mode" looks like a Chinese bootlegger started to rip off Android, ran out of amphetamines, and just gave up a third of the way through. It looks like nothing. Is it still Windows? What is it? Who approved this? Here are the full specs, if you are a masochist:
