I think the latest of the series a Toshiba NB250-10D which is priced much lower at just 13K.

bogsy · 17 years ago

id really go for this nb-200 if only it has 2GBRAM, the package must include ODD, and at least 250GB capacity of HDD, to make it fair for the price of 28k-30k pesos..just my opinion..

I mean 6-cell. My bad. :P Pero bad trip ha! So unfair!

nudol · 17 years ago

This is ridiculous. The NB200 is about 10grand more expensive than the US release and it doesn’t even include the 9-cell battery that’s supposed to boost the NB’s battery life to up to 9 hours. Processor isn’t even updated. >:(

i got my new nb200 for 28,000 pesos and its so great and perfect sulit na sulit kahit mahal. walang sinabi ang asus kahit yung pinaka top of the line nilang netbook. thanks toshiba i love you…

so whats ur verdict? must buy or not?

Correction: It should read: External slim multi DVD-burner instead of “external hard drive”

Jonathan · 17 years ago

I got mine for $479 Canadian dollars. 6 cell battery which is good for 9 hours. Also, it came with slim external hard drive for free. The only thing I change was the memory. I purchased 2 Gig memory chip for $29 bucks, replaced the old 1Gig original memory.

correction: it’s not 5-in-1 card reader, it’s just a 2-in-1 card reader (SD card and MMC). it’s only selling S$799 here in sg. it’s always more expensive jan sa pinas.

UK i think is alreday selling NB200 with a 6cell battery.

John Ray Cabrera · 17 years ago

while i am dazzled at the Toshiba NB200 as I saw it in one of the computer shops in Trinoma, this leaves to a question, will it ever take off at a price point like that?

Jay, you’re correct, unles they will crammed those specs you mentioned into that netbook, people will reconsider their buying frenzies.

Jay · 17 years ago

Tosh are definitely nuts.

Who in the right mind gonna buy a netbook with all the same spec as with every other Asus, Acer, HP, Lenovo..? Well unless it’s feature packed they could actually sell this unit at 30K. Let’s say..

Unlocked 3G/HSDPA/HSUPA
Atom 2GhZ Z550
Nvidia ION / GN40 Graphics
12Hour Battery Life
Wifi a/b/g/n
HDMI
Express Card Slot
1.3Mgpxl Camera
250GB SSD
2GB RAM
Good keyboard
Responsive touchpad and
Light weight

move along now.
nothing revolutionary here.

Please note that Complink did sell the Toshiba NB100 last year for P27,990. The page for this product is no longer available but I noted this at my blog last December 2008.

Guess it never really caught on.

Frank · 17 years ago

uu nga masyadong mahal..e core 2 na yan..

jojo · 17 years ago

toshiba is known to be more expensive in laptops just like to sony

ALPSaguado.com · 17 years ago

Expensive. :(

John Ray Cabrera · 17 years ago

maybe Toshiba NB200 is postioning itself at the same market with the Asus Eee PC S101, hence the insanely hyped up price tag.

Anne · 17 years ago

Price is high for those specs. Granted, Toshiba machines are quite sturdy, but gah, you can get those same specs for P5k-8k less. I’d still choose my HP Mini 2140 over that even though I’m a big Toshiba fan.
