Toshiba Launches Portege R500 & Tecra M8 laptops
The department of Digital Products at Toshiba announced the release of the Portégé R500, a new ultra portable laptop. This would be one of the thinnest Toshiba’s laptops with an internal 7 mm optical drive with a slot loading mechanism. The R500 would also be the first 12.1-inch widescreen laptop to feature a transflective backlit LED screen that uses the ambient light reflected inside the screen to form the image and allows for operating the laptop even under direct sunlight.
Another model launched by Toshiba today was the Tecra M8: a midsize 13-inch laptop targeted at business users with 1.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. To name a few of additional interesting features of Tecra M8, it has a 1.3 Mpx webcam, a fingerprint reader, a card reader, a mini-FireWire port and a 3D hard-drive accelerometer that will prevent damage to your hard drive in case of a fall of the laptop.
