This product is so new, it doesn’t even have a name. Yet.

During the announcement of the new ToughBook notebooks, Panasonic also took the opportunity to show off one of its upcoming Intel Atom-based tablets. This white unit is meant for use in the medical field. Aside from a touch-screen display, it has features like RFID and a fingerprint sensor built in. You probably won’t see this ToughBook in stores anywhere but don’t be surprised if you see a nurse keying in your particulars and medical history on something like this in the future.

The company will officially announce this product later in November.
