Yet another laptop with mobile broadband Internet speeds powered by Toshiba. The new Satellite U405 uses the WiMAX technology enabled by the Intel Centrino 2 processing technology, as part of the Intel WiMAX/Wi-Fi Link 5050 Series, codenamed Echo Peak.
Also called pre-4G, the new wireless connectivity enabled mobile broadband speeds on laptop computers, and the new laptop model provides this feature in Baltimore, US, where users can benefit from it before the coverage will continue to expand in the other areas.

Toshiba Satellite U405-ST550W allows you to transfer files at high speeds, wirelessly, perform intensive Internet applications, initiate live video conferences, watch mobile TV, stream media, and other things, all without the need for hotspots.
The WiMAX technology developed by XOHM prepares the stage for the upcoming 4G standard, which will be the fastest wireless connectivity.

Toshiba’s new enabled laptop features Windows Vista Home Premium operating system, eSATA/USB Sleep-And-Charge Combo Port, built-in web camera with Face Recognition technology, 320GB HDD drive, 4GB of RAM memory, and a 13.3-inch widescreen display with the TruBrite technology. It will be available at the ToshibaDirect online store.

“WiMAX wireless technology is built for the future,” said Jeff Barney, vice president and general manager, Toshiba America Information Systems, Digital Products Division. “With the incorporation of WiMAX technology into Toshiba laptops, we are confident we will provide users with the opportunity to explore a new era of wide spread connectivity and productivity.”
