Toshiba updates its Tablet PC line

Toshiba has announced the latest edition to its Tablet PC family in the form of the Tecra M7. The Tecra M7 brings support for Intel's Core Duo platform.

The Tecra M7 is powered by a 1.83GHz Core Duo T2400 processor and supports up to 4GB of DDR2 memory. An 80GB hard drive is included as is a dual-layer DVD burner. Graphics duties are handled by an NVIDIA Quadro NVS 110M with TurboCache which powers a 14.1" WXGA+ (1,440x900) display. Your usual assortment of interface options are present including four USB 2.0 ports, one Firewire port, TV-out, 6-in-1 media reader, Bluetooth and Intel PRO/Wireless 3945BG 802.11a/b/g support.

There are no pictures available yet of the new Tecra M7, but Engadget reports that it should look quite similar to the Tecra M4 pictured on the right. Expect for the Tablet PC to start at around the $1,600 price point.

I have no idea what an NVIDIA Quadro NVS 110M is....I wish somebody would make a tablet that could at least hold it's own in a game....I have been considering Toshiba's tablet with the geforce 6600...but that's quickly becoming more obsolete.

It's basically a GeForce 7300.


$1600?

That's a lot of notebook/tablet for $1600. I hope it really does come out at that price point.

I have an M4 and am extremely pleased with how well it runs. It is VERY stylish and quite the nice notebook/tablet. My only regret is, now I want the M7...

According to the laptoplogic link, this laptop will have the new Quadro NVS 300M and not the 110M that is stated above.

The Toshiba laptop referenced there is the A7, not the M7. I doubt the tablet will use the 300M due to the higher power dissipation.
