Toshiba Mini NB205 (frost white)
Distinctive design ; large touch pad, great battery life
Bulky battery sticks out awkwardly ; big screen bezel dwarfs display ; wimpy audio
Toshiba finally enters the Netbook market with the Mini NB205. It's got an upscale, distinctive look and a good keyboard/touch pad combo, but also weak audio and a big, bulky battery.
