Toshiba Dynabook SS RX1 Laptop First to Have 128GB SSD, Apparently

Toshiba's Dynabook SS RX1 now has an optional 128GB solid state drive built in, which Toshiba is claiming as a world first. It certainly beats the MacBook Air's SSD option, and is similarly slender, plus it squeezes in an optical drive. It has a 1.2 GHz Core 2 Duo, Intel graphics and a 12.1-inch 1280 x 800 pixel screen, and a claimed battery life of 12.5 hours, which seems huge. It's also configurable without the SSD but with an 80GB hard drive and a CDMA card for mobile internet goodness. Available from April in Japan at first, for around $4,000. [Ascii]

The Toshiba SS MXW—they didn't want to add TOO many meaningless letters after the name so they stopped with five—is an Intel Core Duo T2300 laptop running at about 1.6-GHz with up to 1GB of memory. It has a 12.1-inch display and weighs a mere 4.2-pounds. Built-in WiFi and a card reader are nice, too, and size seems just about right. It'll be about $1,500 if or when it reaches these shores, but you can buy it in Japan right now. More »
