CNET Review
The Good: Great tablet design with a stable display and comfortable stylus; impressive performance; touch screen doesn't require stylus to navigate; sharp screen resolution; Webcam with handy light; price includes three-year warranty.
The Bad: Pathetic battery life; slightly small keyboard and touch pad; lousy speakers; quick-launch buttons are not user-programmable.
The Bottom Line: But for its disappointing battery life, the Toshiba Portege M700 is an excellent hybrid of power laptop and well-designed tablet.
