Toshiba Portege R400 12-incher revealed

by Cyrus Farivar, posted Jan 7th 2007 at 9:31PM

Among the fistful of products announced in the Bill Gates keynote was the Toshiba Portege R400, a 12-inch mobile PC that's constructed on Windows SlideShow technology and of course, is Vista-friendly. We haven't gotten much new info that we didn't know from last time: it's got 3G, WiFi, Bluetooth and gigabit Ethernet. Unfortunately, we're still waiting on an MSRP and a full spec list.

Hey Guys - please keep us updated on this - can't wait to find out more - specs etc. I hope the video card they choose for the protege 400 will allow to drive at least 1 24" monitor, currently they max out at 1600x1200 - and 1920x1200 would be nice. If Toshiba does this right, they shoudl support dual monitor too.

what do you mean "built on sideshow technology" does that mean it has a sideshow screen on it?

Thanks Karan, looks like all the specs are on that site. Does anyone know if this baby will come to the EU as well?
