hey guys,
this is the latest price of all Toshiba Centrino Duo models...hopefully available in all stores right now.

SATELLITE
A100-P545 = RM6,999
A100-P540 = RM4,999

M100-P345 = RM5,999
M100-P340 = RM4,999

TECRA
A6-P3401 = RM6,999
M5-P2301 = RM7,999

for more info - http://pc.toshiba-asia.com/

personally, i prefer Tecra A6 than others but it's just kinda pricey.
as for the high range M100 & A100 come with the harmon kardon speakers with SRS TruSurround Sound.
i wonder how great is the enhancement that been built-in to the speakers.

P/S: is there anyone going to get any that listed above?

Pretty high price..

I like Toshiba notebooks. Yes...the price is on the high side but you get what U pay for. Their support is excellent and also put excellent quality into their product!

Really?Good.
Hope to get a toshiba next.

agreed

AGREED , its better then other models [like Acer for example]..Very solid laptop , i am amzed , the screen is superb , so does the graphics + the sound system..OMG..its like a mini 5.1 - I love them

My friend and his collegues will doubt on this.
They are working in Teledynamic.
According to them, Toshiba notebook = High price + low specs + lousy support.

I'm not against Toshiba. I'm using one of them.
For me, performance just so so. Nothing amazing and magical.
Yape, mine one harddisk is gone within 2 years.
But, I'm a heavy user. It may coz any harddisk in any lappies shorter lifespan.

I think they will be impacted by acer or dell as its lappies' s price is way high above with the same specs. And then, buying lappies become a trend among undergraduates without any income. But, they have good parents.
I can't really believe they are offering 256MB RAM in a RM 5k latest lappies.

Going to change to other lousy brands to test how really lousy is the quality unless get a very good discount from Toshiba.
Any promotion?

erm.... we're talking bout the new Duo Core series wor .... why Toshiba support not good meh? So far i compare all the Duo Core lappies... Toshiba's offer is quite good ma ... u got any other recommendations which have specs like M100-P345?

btw the Ram they are offering is 512MB le ...

Yah, me too. Pls advice and share all about M100-P345 high spec.

Anyway.... myself also a Toshiba user, with this new one...I can really feel the drop in quality. The hinges do not have the solid feel of the older Satellites any more. I find the CSV screen good in low and moderate lighting conditions but in high light conditions can get quite a lot of reflection.

And as you see with the latest L-series...the Satellite has even lost it's classic design and look.

Will tell more if requested... but that's all for now.

erm project-o ... can u tell more coz i might be buying the M100 in like 2 weeks time ... but now still doing research...

the hinges wont break so easily rite??? and bout the CSV screens... most lappies which have the clear screen will also face the same problems unless u get a lenovo lo

i agree with project-o, toshiba is starting to come into malaysia market at year 2005, any they slash their price to compete with other brand.... while slashing their price, they maintain the profit margin, so what u will get?
i am toshiab user indeed

where got come into the msia market so late ??? btw wat toshiba lappie model u using soonhooi ?

Well.. to put it this way...can buy it if you think it is cheap but don't expect too much nowadays.

haih ... if by end of april dont have new models of lappies offering duo cores then i will settle for M100 lo
