    So Toshiba has come out with some new models, some of which we can already buy here in Holland:

    I was looking at the p300 which seems to have great value for money if it has no serious design flaws.

    These are the specs of the version that holds my interest (sorry for the Dutch)

    It comes at a very competitive price. The only model I seen on the forums so far is the M305 and was hoping more people could share their experiences with this line of notebooks.

    first review of these new series seems to be out just now

    Of course, the mirror-like reflections on the Fusion finish have some advantages as well. You can use the laptop to reflect the sun and signal rescue planes if you are ever lost in the woods with your laptop

    LOL
