Toshiba M700 first look, benchmarks: TabletPCReview

4156One of Toshiba’s newest Tablet PCs, the Portegé M700, is making the review rounds. Earlier this week, GottaBeMobile “gotta” look and now TabletPCReview offers up some impressions and benchmarks.This device is a relatively powerful convertible when compared to some of its peers based on the specs. Yet, even with a 2.2 GHz Core 2 Duo, the device offers over four-hours of run-time on the standard 6-cell battery. Typically, you’ll see longer run-times with the ULV processors in the 1.06 to 1.2 GHz range but you’re sacrificing some processing power as a result. Not so with the M700, which is evident by the PCMark05 scores over at TabletPCReview. For the price (starting around $1,450), the M700 looks to be a good computing value if you don’t mind a Tablet PC weighing in over 4.5-pounds.
