As for this product itself.. some glitches..
Too costly.. I wont pay USD 1000+ for this..
Needs to cost less than half of what it is now.
the Glare.. way too bad.. Cut the glare out pls Fujitsu.
Medical Doctors..
Keep a look out for these products..
great for carrying along reading PDF journals, review papers and research articles on the go.. Perhaps even medical text books.
Computer monitors are just too much a strain to the eyes.
