Toshiba's
new bounty is all but
out there, but we've still got two more to bring you before the onslaught is over. Up first is the business-minded
Tecra R10 (shown after the break), which shows vitals of 4.4-pounds and 1.13-inches thick. It also provides upwards of 5-hours of battery life on a single charge, an Intel Centrino 2 CPU, NVIDIA's 128MB Quadro NVS GPU, 14.1-inch LED-backlit display, ExpressCard slot, USB Sleep-and-Charge / eSATA combo port and a price tag starting at $1,549. On deck, we've got the 12.1-inch Portégé A600, which offers up a Centrino 2 processor and 7.5-hours of claimed battery life while weighing just 3.2-pounds and measuring 1.18-inches thick. As with the rest, this one's ready to be ordered right this moment starting at $1,399.

Nice... A good notebook with a good config. for a good price....
I wonder who's paying you for that. Toshiba, maybe?
will it run Crysis??????????????????????????????????????????????????????
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
It just might.
Is that a VGA port?? Who needs that these days? Can I get an internal 3.5" floppy drive, too?
VGA is needed by many business users using projectors for presentations...duh
Also to use a second screen at the same time: dual display.
@alex, what have you been hitting this week?
You shouldn't huff gasoline, it's bad for your head.
"VGA is needed by many business users using projectors for presentations...duh"
I'm so tired of hearing that excuse. You can do the same thing with a DVI to VGA adapter cable. I do it with my macbook all the time and it 's mini-DVI jack.
@ Michael "DVI to VGA adapter"
Why do they include WIFI, Bluetooth and card reader? Because we HATE to carry adapters, keys and any external add-ons!
Add-ons are ok when they stay at the same place. NOT in my small document case where I put my Notebook with my paper documents.
Nice lappie.
Nice lappie
Look at the VGA port on the first pic... Is that a decal?
Portege A600 or Protege A600
Portege A600 or Protege A600
3.2lbs.. might just be light enough for me :].
Looks curiously like the old averatec ultraportables.
I don't like the quality and texture of plastic even on the higher end Toshiba laptops. Hope they get that fixed.
And I wish they'd eliminate the strange position of the Windows key (upper right top of the keyboard) on some of their lower priced laptops.
One thing that's missing from your blurb is that the Portege A600 has an optical drive at the weight of 3.2 lbs, which makes it very light and puts it in Thinkpad X300 territory.
