Rectron releases Toshiba`s next-generation Tablet PC


Johannesburg, 06 Jan 2004

South African distributor Rectron has introduced Toshiba`s recently released Tablet PC, the Port'eg'e M200, which now offers new features, enhanced productivity tools and a docking station.

The Port'eg'e M200 follows the success of Toshiba`s Port'eg'e 3500 Tablet PC - featuring advanced wireless connectivity (integrated WiFi and Bluetooth technology), Intel Centrino mobile processing power and a dual axis accelerometer.

"With its innovative design and enhanced system performance, the Port'eg'e M200 offers users a more intuitive interface and a natural, practical way of working with their computer," comments Andr'e Rossouw, Toshiba product manager at Rectron.

From large sales force automation roll-outs to converting text to digital ink, the Portege M200 caters for a broad range of company requirements which in turn maximises productivity.

"The Port'eg'e indeed offers exciting new options that include the Tablet Multi Dock - docking station and the reserve pen that provides new usage scenarios and increased application use, for everyday mobile computing needs," he comments. The Tablet Multi Dock feature enables users to use their Tablet PC in a comfortable, natural position and to write on the screen while at their desk. With screen rotation to landscape or portrait mode, users now have the ability to adjust the unit at different height levels.

Expanding workspace and increasing productivity, the Tablet Multi Dock includes an integrated SlimSelectBay to support an additional hard disk drive or optical disk drive, enabling users to increase storage capacity, download software or back-up vital information.

Toshiba`s Portege M200 is powered by the NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5200 graphics controller with 32MB of dedicated DDR memory.

The Tablet PC is bundled with Microsoft Office OneNote 2003 for completing business tasks such as data management, spreadsheet and presentations.

Other enhancements include pen-enabled programmable buttons which allows users to simply launch an application with the touch of the Tablet PC pen.
