Review Toshiba NB-100 Netbook

Netbook from Toshiba. The fight for netbook-market shares goes on

Quiet even under load; Option of Win XP or Ubuntu; Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR; UMTS/3G

Glossy display; Unsuitable for outdoor use; Loudspeakers are too quiet

Netbooks are defined as being small, light and mobile so that you can take them everywhere. Well, almost everywhere. What's the glare display doing here?

Toshiba NB100

In the face of an identical hardware platform, Toshiba's netbook fails to bring a unique point of difference.

The same netbook platform we've come to know and love

Toshiba's answer to the mini-notebook trend comes in the form of a typical 8.9-inch model that sports similar specs as its competitors.

Toshiba NB100

An 8.9in, WIndows XP-based netbook

1kg, Sleep-and-Charge USB ports, screen tilts all the way back

Cramped keyboard is hard to type on, screen is susceptible to reflections, touchpad buttons are uncomfortable, Sleep-and-Charge is not enabled by default

The NB100 is a little overpriced, but it is a solid little unit with Sleep-and-Charge USB ports, which are very convenient while travelling. It could use more RAM and a solid-state drive; a version with Linux installed would be pretty sweet, too.
