Toshiba e800: A First Look?
Barry over at Pocket PC Tools was sent a Toshiba Powerpoint presentation, and he was kind enough to post it on his Web site for everyone to see. Thanks Barry!  This is all just rumours at this point, but everything here seems possible, but I'm floored by the mention of VGA resolution...did Toshiba come up with a way to do pixel doubling? 8O No photos, just a low-res rendering. Go check out the site for more images and data.
� 4" Screen
� VGA Resolution (480x640), switchable to 240x320
� 128MB RAM & 32 MB NAND
� 72 Hour Data Protection

� CF-II Slot
� SD I/O Slot
� USB Host connector
� VGA Output
� Slimmer (135x77x16.7mm)
� 30% Bigger Battery
� USB/Serial Client
� 4-Ring Headset

Add a flip-cover, improve customer service, and change the statement "Bluetooth or WiFi" to "Bluetooth and WiFi" and this is my next device.. :wink:

Maybe this will win back some of the customers Toshiba lost with the whole WM2003 upgrade issue.

But I must say that button arrangement is ...uhmm..not gamer friendly.
And I hope Toshiba clear up their display driver issue, they seem to always have the slowest graphic.

...and szamot and JonnoB hit the nail on the head...
Why do we have to give some features up in order to gain others again and again...
IF this is genuine then it is a missed opportunity by not having the bulit-in tri-wireless that should be the future...
Still - I hope it is faked - not because I don't want the features - I just don't want it to be Toshiba that offers them...

Looks cool to me. Man if I didn't have to read about so many angry customers I might be more excited. I have always liked toshiba's designs on their ppcs, not to exclude this one. They seem to overprice things compared to the rest of the ppc crop though, we'll have to see what they price this baby at. :lol:
