The Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Sa 3650 notebook has been finally listed at retailers, after three months since it was originally announced. The mobile PC will become available in about a week, and it has a listing price ranging from $1552 to $1584. For those enthusiasts that waited the past three months for the notebook to surface, a few more days shouldn't be much of a trouble, especially given the fact that this is the first mobile machine to support AMD's XGP external graphics.

Fujitsu Siemens named the XGP module AMILO Graphic Booster. It features an HD3870 card, which allows it to leverage 3D performance five times compared to the integrated Radeon HD3200. The Sa 3650 model is based on AMD's Puma platform and packs inside a 2.4GHz Turion X2 Ultra ZM-84 CPU, 4GB of memory, a 320GB hard drive and comes with a 13.3-inch 1280x800 screen. The weight of the notebook is just 2.4 kg.

The Amilo Sa 3650 also features an integrated SATA Super Multi-format DVD burner with double layer support, an AMILOcam with low-light technology and built-in digital array microphone, integrated wireless LAN (10/100/1000), DVI-I, eSATA, USB 2.0, Express Card, S / PDIF, interface and a 15-in-1 card reader. As special features, it has a silent mode function, specially protected keyboard to prevent the penetration of accidentally spilled liquids in the notebook, as well as the support for the AMILO Graphic Booster.

The integrated AMILOcam allows the notebook to be easily used for video conferences without the need of any additional accessory. It features a low-light technology that allows for low ambient light on the displayed image. The Brilliant View technology enables even greater viewing angles and offers the best image quality through LED backlighting. The notebook also features a Wireless-H LAN connection, which allows it to enable transfer rate speeds five times higher than those of a standard 802.11a/b/g out.
