    As a new reseller, I am looking for explanation of what all the details after the cf-19 cf-30 and so on. I am passed a list with the details of what is included with the units for resale but do not have yet, a master list of abbreviation.

    Take for example the tough-book android tablet the FZ-A1BDAAVAM. I know it is a tablet based on the FZ-A1 description. But what do all the lettering after the model discretion mean? Does Panasonic or another site have a master description of all the lettering?

    Thanks

    The letters mean different things for different models

    I have seen them for the 19 and 30 only. Got to TBT for the 19 or go to the link in the next post. Lots of info there for you.

    These are custom made models so the model numbers cannot be looked up in panasonic.

    Anyway, here is a link to the option list for a cf-29 Imagebin - A place to slap up your images.

    I have circled the T , 3 and 4. How does the T relate to the model number on the back of the tough-book and the number options in that row?

    For example I have a Cf-29NTQGZBM

    t: 13.3" xga ts

    The way it is listed across the top is just random,29n(mk5)t(13.3" XGA touchscreen)xxxxxx like that,it threw me at first.

    In other words the letters on top are random,you just go across 29xxxxxxx and follow the next list going down till you find your number or letter,29Nxxxxxx,29xTxxxxx and so on.

    The numbers and letters in the box spaces at the top of the list, this did confuse me. So, this is a great list. Problem is the wikipidia does not list it for the cf31. My guess is the previous list for the cf-30 or cf-29 apply to the cf-31?

    No, each model is different, except for (usually) the country of origin and operating system designations.

    There is not a master list that covers all models. That would be way too simple. :rolleyes:

    For older models, I could use an old webpage that Panasonic took down.
    For later models , I go to the current Panasonic configuration page.
