I have a suspicion that all these small new generation machines are sharing the same motherboard, chip, ram, screen, 1.3mp wewbcam etc. These things come with eithrer HDD or SDD drives. They are all the blod*dy same :mad: http://www.techcentral.ie/article.aspx?id=12575

If it comes out at €320 then it might stir up the market a bit, especially with Good Battery life, 1GB Memory & 120GB HD. It also looks great.

Whats the bet that it will be €399 though.....

Nice to see Toshiba following Dell's lead by offering Ubuntu.

I can't say i'm all that surprised by the specs tbh. But, i'd be thinking that price will rise to closer to the 400 mark, if not then they might be getting somewhere, ie. back to the whole small and cheap mindset that Asus started with the eee700 series.
