    The specs dont say anything about a fingerprint reader BUT in the pictures I have seen it does appear to have one.

    labelflash is included with this laptop.

    I have the P205-s6267 model (17") model. My puter does not have the finger print reader.
    Check out the spec sheet on the toshiba site, this will tell you everything that it has....

    I just got it. It doesnt have the fingerprint reader but it does have the web cam and microphone in the LCD.

    dualmode touchpad? no idea.

    Only express card.

    I will say one thing though. The speakers are really good. Not too terribly excited by the LCD due to the lack of uniformity in the backlight. but in normal usage you cant tell, just when the screen is a solid color.

    first of all the a205-s4617 is not what i am looking for...

    now MaxxxRacer thanks! you really helped me... sounds like the A205-S4567 should have the same things and maybe the A205-S4587 will have fingerprint and dual mode touchpad too...

    the dual mode touch pas is that you have on it buttons for volume and some programs like e-mail...

    Ahh, sorry about that, I misread and thought you were asking if those options were available on this series. Oops :eek:
