Years after selling notebooks in Asia and Europe, Samsung has finally braved the jump to the U.S. market. The company will be releasing five different notebook lines to North America, including its pretty little 10-inch netbook for $499 and the super skinny X360 starting at $1,599. Other lines include their Q-series all-purpose notebooks, their R-series desktop replacements and the business focused, rugged P-series. Ha! We knew you couldn't stay away, Samsung. [Laptop Mag]

Fujitsu U8240 Coming to the States

Remember that Fujitsu UMPC we showed you last week? Thanks to the folks at Dynamism you'll soon be able to buy one. They're importing the Tablet/UMPC hybrid over from Japan for $2,099. It's expected to arrive mid-to-late June in two configurations, one with Windows XP and one with Windows Vista (we'd choose the former). Still no word on when/if Fujitsu will bring it to the States, so this could be your only chance to snatch one. – Louis Ramirez
