Toshiba has just announced a couple of new notebooks that they hope you might enjoy. First up is the U500 which sports a 13.3-inch multi-touchscreen display with a 1,280 x 800 resolution. Unfortunately, it won't do any swiveling. It also features an Intel Core i3-330 2.13GHz CPU, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, a 320GB HDD, an integrated HD webcam, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth support, a DVD burner, a 5-in-1 card reader, an HDMI / two USB 2.0 ports, and you're stuck with integrated graphics. You get this one now for £650 ($1,014 USD).

Toshiba wasn't done there. They've also unveiled the Tecra M11 and A11 notebooks (above). Both notebooks are just about the same except for the displays which are measured at 14 and 15.6-inches, respectively. They'll boast Intel Core i3 / i5 / i7 CPU options, up to a 250GB HDD, up to 8GB of DDR3 RAM, WiFi a/b/g/n / optional 3G support, a Mini DisplayPort, a fingerprint reader, and an optional numeric keypad. There'll be an "Eco" mode so that you don't drain all of its battery life in 45 minutes.

The A11 is available now for as low as $879 USD and the M11 will be available in March. The price for the M11 is still TBA.
