Both are expensive high-end tablet. Fujitsu is made in Japan but Thinkpad has a longer history plus it is a legacy of IBM.
But T900 has a 13.3 inch screen which provide more real estate when working in the tablet mode.

Which one will you guys choose?

T900 sounds like a Thinkpad (19" Thinkpad!?).

I'll throw in my .02...I left thinkpads around the X41 coming out completely till last week - and went to Fujitsu. I've had a fujitsu as the travling unit since the mid 90s. They were always smaller than the thinkpads, and usually touchscreen - with a unique touch - and reliable. They are both built for 'enterprise' class - They are both very IT friendly, They are both well supported - and not blandly like a dell. Each has had their 'dogs' - more so for Fujitsu - but in the end - both last - both work. Fujitsu was always better with Hardware - and I think they last longer, but there were very limited on configurations / options (Thinpad has 200 seperate models for a class, fujitsu will have 5).
Their best was either P1510 or my beloved B2131 - which I still have (400mhz celeron touchscreen) whose HDD just gave out end of last year - she's seen some 1,000,000 plus actual miles on planes. I had their p1120 (crusoe - ug) - but still have it, and the last ones were the P1510, P1620, P1630... The P1510 used a 1.8" 5mm drive - dog slow but still a road warriors dream... Their hardware build quality I'd rate above IBM/lenovo. I went through 5+ X31 - which was an awesome unit - but the motherboards didn't last. The T40s didn't impress, the old T20 was killer (best ever?) - and if I kept I am SURE it would still be chugging along (exceptional series), and the newer ones seem really nice.
IBM and now Lenovo was always better with configurations and software, and a much better website...
I go through these often - but my 'primary' always last me 5 + years... B2131 to P1510D to X200... Fujitsu doesn't seem to be listening to their core fans these days and has killed the 8.9" convertibles as they think a bigger screen is better... Depending upon you needs the Thinkpads will offer much more in terms of customized fit and options, and more bang for your buck today.
