The new Toshiba Libretto?

Posted by Bob on Jul 28, 2008

According to the Chinese Newspaper Economic Daily News, Sony, Fujitsu and Toshiba will launch there own ASUS EEE like mini laptop this year.

That would be great news for us mini laptops lovers, because if Toshiba is really working on a small laptop, like the ASUS EEE PC or MSI Wind, it should be called Libretto, don’t you agree?

Unfortunately, I was not able to got Toshiba to tell me some really interesting news, but I found some interesting stuff via good old Google! On several blogs like the Australian PC Authority, the new 5,6″ Toshiba UMPC is shown. Toshiba’s Mark Whittard says that “We don’t think this [prototype] is commercially viable, it’s too small,” [....] “Having said that, we will have a ULPC soon.”

And that is quite interesting, a ULPC (ultra low-cost PC). Will this then be the new Libretto?

If any reader has more information about the new Toshiba mini-laptop, please let us know!
