The machine is great. The only thing I miss is the fingerprint reader.
The sound is nice for a notebook. It's thin and light for it's class, and definitely a very good looking machine. The battery is supperb, nearly 5,5 hours with wi-fi on, and heavy Internet browsing. It's extremely quiet, and don't get too warm. The radio tuner is excellent, very nice to have it. I can also record from a stereo line in (nice feature), it's the same input as the microphone, but you can set it up through software ... Read More
Rating: - U405-S2830 13`` - A thousand dollars for a garbage
I have the U405-S2830, which I dont know why they are not selling this model anymore, bec. it is pretty new model, I wonder if there is something wrong with the model.
Apart from this, it is 3 GB RAM and 250 GB, I can not understand how slow can it be, when the ones with less ram and hard drive are faster. it has the Intel Core T8100.

Rating: - Better than I expected.
This notebook is a 13,3" 2,26 GHz Core 2 Duo with 3 GB RAM and 320 GB HD. Ok. But... It has labeflash, extended battery and a radio turner. It would be better if it was a TV, but, for me that just bought because of the three first specifications... I strongly recomend. The price has come down since a I bought it.

I placed an order for this laptop on Aug 16, 2008. Promised to deliver 18th and then 22nd but actually the product is out of stock (per CSR comment). I finally bought this from CC where it is much cheaper (incl taxes). If you can get the product from Amazon right in time at a lower price than others, it may be a worth. This review is not for the product but for Amazon. I am going to leave a detailed product review in the store which offered me great price and wonderful service.
Rating: - Good outside, Bad inside + horrible experience with Amazon
The good:
(1) It's good looking! Some don't like that this shiny fusion finish is a fingerprint magnet, but I love it. I think this is one of the best looking laptops not produced by Apple.
(2) It is reasonably priced. This statement can be applied to many Toshiba laptops. Except for some pricy models (like R500), Toshiba seems to set the prices at very competitive levels. Usually Toshiba laptops are much cheaper (conditional on the specs) than Sony, Lenovo, and more or less comparable (but ... Read More
