Interesting. Not sure that I would actually spring for
one. Will have to wait for a US model and see. That
battery pack thingy on the back is hideous though.
Screws up the whole concept in my mind. That mouse
looks a little strange, but should be a little easier
to manipulate than the L100 mouse.

I am sure the screen is going to be quite tiny for
regular use, no wonder they had to incorporate a zoom
feature. Otherwise people would be using the magnifying
glass in Windows accessibility.

Perhaps this will be the shot in the arm to get Toshiba
to come out with a proper modern Libretto. They didn't
release the L1/2/3 series until Sony threw out theirs.
Will have to wait and see.
