QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
NEW MODELS/TRANSITIONS
Q1. Do these new models replace any current models within the LTE 5000 family?
A1. The LTE 5380: Represents a new high end LTE 5000 model that is offered in addition to
current models.
The LTE 5250: Offered to be a replacement for the 90-MHz LTE 5100 models as well as a
enhancement to the 75-MHz LTE 5000 Model 810 CTFT.
The LTE 5150: Offered to be a replacement for the 75-MHz LTE 5000 Model 810 CSTN
800 x 600 and Model 510 CSTN products.
Q2. What are the current models that are offered in the LTE 5000 family?
A2: New LTE 5380 Model 2160 CTFT 1024 x 768 Available in July
LTE 5300 Model 1350 CTFT 800 x 600 Now shipping
LTE 5280 Model 1350 CTFT 800 x 600 Now shipping
New LTE 5250 Model 810 CTFT 800 x 600 June 17
New LTE 5150 Model 810 CSTN 800 x 600 June 17
LTE 5000 Model 810 CTFT Available until July
LTE 5000 Model 510 CSTN Available until July
Q3. Are any LTE 5000 models going out of production?
A3. The LTE 5200 Model 1350, both LTE 5100 models and the LTE 5000 Model 810 CSTN
800 x 600 models are being replaced by these new announcements.
Q4. Why did Compaq add the additional 8-MB memory module to the LTE 5150 product?
A4. The additional 8 MB of memory is being offered as an added value on this model only.
The 8-MB memory module is installed in the memory option slot for a total of 16 MB of
memory on the LTE 5150.
BATTERIES
Q5. Why is there no Li-ion battery for the LTE 5000?
A5. In November of 1995, Compaq delayed the availability of the Li-ion battery for the LTE
5000. The delay was needed while a re-design of the Li-ion battery pack was initiated. In
the meantime, Compaq concentrated on making improvements to the NiMH chemistry
battery for the LTE 5000. In April, with improvements to the efficiency of the NiMH
cells, users could realize a 20% improvement in runtime. In keeping with the momentum
gained by concentrating on improvements to the NiMH chemistry battery, users will again
realize improvements in runtime with further improvements to the NiMH batteries in these
new announced products. These improvements have accumulated to delivery NiMH
runtimes close to what a Li-ion chemistry battery would delivery for the LTE 5000. Given
that NiMH is more readily available, less expensive to ship in the notebook and now for the
LTE 5000 offers runtimes at parity with what we anticipate for Li-ion, the advantage of Li-
ion for the LTE 5000 diminishes to that of weight savings.
Q6. When will Compaq make a Li-ion battery available for the LTE 5000?
A6. Compaq continues to pursue the delivery of a Li-ion battery for the LTE 5000 with an
anticipated 4Q1996 delivery. This battery will be supported on all LTE 5000 models.
