Toshiba Launches First Android Laptop
Tue, 29 Jun 2010
Toshiba has launched its first laptop to feature the Google Android mobile operating system . In addition to the Android 2.1 OS, the AC100 notebook also features a 1GHz NVIDIA Tegra 250 processor, a 10.1 inch 1024x600 resolution display, 8GB of in-built storage, 512MB RAM, an SD reader and a 1.3 megapixel camera. The computer also has WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, while 3G connectivity is also available. The PC is extremely sleek, measuring just 262x190x14mm, and weighing just 870 grams.

One of the main features of the AC100 is the speedy access it offers to emails and the internet . With a boot time of under a second, and the option to keep the device on standby for up to seven days, the notebook is ideal for those requiring quick access to documents, emails and the web while on the move.

The laptops launch is significant in demonstrating the commitment of the PC manufacturer to supporting Google’s Android OS. Android is unlikely to swallow up much of the OS market on conventional desktop computers and notebooks – a market more likely to be targeted by Google’s Chrome OS, but Android is expected to become a big player in the mobile phone operating system market.
