So if you're a regular Gizmodo reader this isn't new news -- in fact, it's two months old -- but Toshiba is releasing a new 60GB version of the very same harddrive that is used inside the 20 and 40GB versions of the Apple iPod. And despite what Apple will try to tell you, they've already ordered a big mess of them; conveniently they are missing a top-end, $500 model fourth-generation iPod. It's not a question of if, it's a question of when.

Toshiba Announces 60GB Gigabeat with
Color Screen 09/27/2004 06:36 AM

Toshiba has announced new models in its Gigabeat series of hard disk-based MP3 players, including the new F models that come in sizes up to 60GB with a 2.2-inch color LCD screen. These players use 1.8-inch hard drives, as well, so we are definitely talking iPod-sized devices. It's a shame that Toshiba doesn't really promote the Gigabeat here, as I'd expect they'd sell like hotcakes, or perhaps sell like 60GB hard disk-players with huge color screens.

Battery life is projected at 11 hours, and Toshiba also offers an optional wireless link that lets you connect to a Gigabeat in its cradle over Wi-Fi from multiple computers.

Trusted Reviews tries out the MSI Mega Cache 15, a portable 1.5GB USB hard drive that is aiming for a chunk of the flash memory segment with its very reasonable $150 price (1GB flash drives are hovering around $175 - $300 at the moment). Wrapped up in an attractive brushed aluminum chasis, the Mega Cache performs exactly as advertised, making it a viable alternative to most other small portable media, especially considering its small size (it's using a 1-inch drive). If you use one with a Powerbook it would look like it were suckling its own child.

Soyo Group Inc. has taken the wraps off its latest portable hard drive, the Cigar HD20, a 1.8-inch hard drive with a USB 2.0 interface and 20GB of storage capacity. With its magnesium alloy casing, the US$199 Cigar HD20 is approximately the size of an iPod and weighs 2.8 ounces. The hard drive spins at 4200RPM and it draws power from a USB port. Soyo's Web page for the product lists the inclusion of compression/decompression software as well as e-mail sending and receiving capabilities and security features, but a company representative told MacCentral that none of those items currently ship with the drive, although they could be added at a later date. He was unsure if they will be compatible with Mac OS X. The Cigar HD20 comes with a USB 2.0 cable and a soft carrying case.

Toshiba Gigabeat Available At Audiocubes 12/22/2004 01:36 AM

You can't get them at your local retailer, but Toshiba's 10, 20, and 60GB Gigabeat audio players are available through exporter AudioCubes. There are several words one might use to describe the Gigabeat series, amongst them: "QVGA screen," "reasonable battery life," and, "oppressively expensive." The 'economy model' F10 starts at a budget-busting $400, while the 60GB heavyweight tips breaks the scale at $730. They look like potentially pretty cool units, but you'll get more bang for your buck just about anywhere else.

Toshiba e830 Launches in Japan, Europe 09/14/2004 07:24 AM

Toshiba is releasing the e830 in Europe and Japan today, an update to the popular e800 series Pocket PC. There's not one particular thing that makes it better than its previous version, so much as incremental upgrades all around, including a faster processor, an updated Bluetooth stack, more built-in RAM, and Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition. But really, why do we Americans care? Toshiba has chosen to ignore the US market for this one - I guess it wasn't as popular as we thought, huh?

PocketPCTools has a comparison chart showing the differences between the two models. (Thanks, James!)

Cometa and Toshiba: And Then There Was
One 04/20/2004 02:01 PM
With tiny scattered networks and the loss of McDonald's, Toshiba's SurfHere locations fold into Cometa Networks: As rumors surfaced a few weeks ago about a reduction in force at Toshiba's SurfHere division coupled with the inevitable reason--McDonald's had already informed them that Wayport would be their anointed partner--Toshiba is essentially exiting their poorly formulated and executed hotspot strategy. While Toshiba couldn't gain traction on its turnkey hotspot offering, Cometa gains the ability to include "some or all"--as the press release puts it--of SurfHere's hundreds of locations. Reading between the lines, they can cherry pick outlets that make sense to Cometa's mission. Cometa's current count of hotspots in their directory is about 100 excluding the McDonald's that will be taken over by Wayport. The Barnes & Noble deal, a year in the making, will eventually add 500 locations in the U.S. to Cometa's list. Toshiba is a massive computer manufacturer, however, and the press release pledges their involvement in promoting Cometa Networks' hotspots. A tricky affair, since Cometa has long said that they weren't branding their hotspots, but rather pushing through resale to brands like cell operators. Publicly held companies rarely like to admit defeat as it can open them up to shareholder lawsuits and stock drops. But the press release pushes a little too hard. "Having helped stimulate the emerging hotspot industry, we believe we can best continue with the strategic intent of the SurfHere Network through this alliance with Cometa Networks," says Chris Harrington, vice president, strategy and business development for Toshiba's American operations. Out of between 8,000 and 10,000 current U.S. hotspots a handful of locations scattered around the country were Toshiba locations. They had no major initiatives. They came late to the party. They secured no chains of stores or major venues. They had, let's be honest, an almost (but not quite) zero effect on the emerging hotspot industry except to show that at the end of the day you can fire hotspots out of a gun and hope they stick....
