Deal Of The Day: $70 Off On Toshiba Satellite L870D-ST3NX1

By David Ponce on 10/19/12 • Leave a comment!

We’re inching ever closer to the Windows 8 launch date and products with the OS pre-loaded are starting to appear. One of the first ones is the Toshiba Satellite L870D-ST3NX1, a 17.3 inch laptop with “AMD A8 quad-core processor, 8GB RAM, 17.3″ 1600×900 display, HD Webcam, HDMI and 3 USB ports (includes 1 sleep and charge and 2 USB 3.0), Bluetooth and more.” That’s a fairly capable set of features, and considering you’ll be paying $579 after a $70 rebate, we’d say it’s a very fair price. It is a pre-order however and will ship on the Windows 8 launch date, which is October 26.

Deal Of The Day: $227 Off On Toshiba Satellite Dual-Core Laptop

By David Ponce on 10/09/12 • Leave a comment!

The Toshiba Satellite laptop you’re looking at in the picture is of the 17 inch variety. That’s a lot of inches for a portable device. And if you’re not looking for an Ultrabook, but for basement bargain prices, it’s hard to do better than $412 after rebate. For the third of a price of a high-end Ultrabook, you get a dual-core processor, 4GB RAM and a 500GB Hard Drive. There’s also a 1600×900 display, along with an integrated webcam and USB 3.0. For a hair above $400, that’s what we call good value.

Deal Of The Day: $300 Off On Toshiba Satellite

By David Ponce on 08/29/12 • Leave a comment!

We realize that it’s a somewhat inevitable consequence of having a diversified product line, but when machines have product names like P740-ST6N01, it makes it so much harder to remember exactly what you’re getting. Granted, this is a Toshiba Satellite, but the alphabet soup product number means that it’s the Core i5 2.5GHz model with the 8GB of RAM. Yeah, no way you’d have known that had we not told you, but that’s ok. The takeaway is that it’s a 14 inch laptop, with additional features like an “LED-backlit LCD (1366×768), Intel HD graphics, USB 3.0 sleep-and-charge port, HDMI, integrated webcam, harman/kardon speakers and Fusion X2 finish in platinum.” $899 is regular price, $599 after the drop. Shipped.

It was just a few days ago that we were remarking on the sub $1k price of a 55 inch LED TV. 55 inches is a lot of screen real estate and while today’s deal might not be of the LED kind, the price more than makes up for it. See, instead of the $1,299 regular pricetag, you can get the Toshiba 55G310U 55-inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV for $799. For that price you get “1080p resolution, ClearScan 120Hz, CineSpeed Plus LCD Panel, DynaLight, and more. ”

Toshiba Fuel Cell Charger Now Available

By Evan Ackerman on 11/02/09 • 16 Comments

fuelcell
By Evan Ackerman

We’ve been hearing for a long long long long loooooooong time now about how fuel cells are going to be the batteries of the future, since they’re instantly rechargeable with a shot of booze. But like so many promises (::cough:: ::cough::) they haven’t quite materialized yet. Toshiba, though, has just released an actual fuel cell charger in Japan. Unlike the Medis fuel cell charger that we reviewed back in February, Toshiba’s Dynario charger can be topped of with concentrated methanol, which is the whole point of fuel cells… You can just keep refilling them. In about 20 seconds, 50 mL of methanol reacts with oxygen in the air to charge a battery in the device with enough juice to recharge two mobile phones via USB.

As cool as the Dynario is, it’s still very much a first stab at commercializing this kind of technology, nowhere near Samsung’s fantastical 160 hour laptop fuel cell. Only 3000 Dynario units are for sale, and so far, they’re only available in Japan… Toshiba will see how well they work out before committing to further distribution. If you want one, you can find them online at Toshiba’s Shop1048 for $328, plus another $34 for 5 cartridges. Is the neatness worth the cost and inefficiency? No, but for the sake of the technology, I hope these sell like hotcakes. Hotcakes filled with concentrated alcohol. Mmmmmm…

By Chris Scott Barr

If the announcement that Toshiba had put in for membership with the Blu-ray Disc Association wasn’t enough evidence that they had completely switched teams, here is further proof. The company has announced their first standa-alone Blu-ray player for the US, dubbed the BDX2000.

It’s a decently-priced player, coming in with a list price of $250 (expect retail to be a little less). There’s really not much to note, as it seems to be your regular run-of-the-mill player. 1080p, BD-Live and BonusView just to note the major features. Look for this on shelves sometime this November.

Toshiba Announces 64GB SD Card

By David Ponce

It’s not even close to Sony’s 2TB Memory Stick but at least it’s not a proprietary card. Toshiba’s just announced a 64GB card that employs the new SDXC (XC for extended capacity) memory standard. Problem is it won’t be available until spring 2010 and price is unknown yet as it’ll depend on market prices for flash memory at the time of launch. Toshiba claims write speeds of 35 megabytes per second and a read speed of 60 megabytes per second.
