Toshiba NB250 comes with DDR3 RAM and WiMAX radio
Toshiba announced it is updating its Dynabook line of notebooks in Japan, with new models ranging in size from a 10.1 inch netbook to 16 inch notebooks.
The 10.1" screen Dynabook UX/24 will use Intel's Atom N455 processor along with 1 or 2GB of DDR3 RAM and a 250GB Hard disk drive, and will include a WiMAX module too, says the company. Outside Japan, the UX/24 will be known as the NB250.
Other than the change in processor and RAM, Toshiba has left the netbook styling and features pretty much the same as previous models. Carried over, also, are the other typical netbook features such as three USB 2.0 ports, a webcam, a VGA output, a microphone input and headphone output, and a 10/100 Ethernet port. It will be available in white, brown, blue or black.
Also retained is the shiny keyboard with a chiclet design similar to its previous NB305.
The Dynabook UX/24 will be available later this month with Windows 7 Starter Edition. Pricing was not specified.
