Here is a new laptop that Toshiba is going to be putting out.....Toshiba Libretto W105

Yep no keyboard on this model and the cost for this baby is $1100.00. There are different screens where the keyboard typically is that you can choose from but none of them keyboards. How you type out a reply to say a email I have no clue.

Dedicating half your laptop to 80-odd keys is such a waste of space — at least, that's the message we're getting from the new Toshiba Libretto W105. With two 7-inch touchscreens, the 1.2-GHz machine does triple duty as a notebook computer, media player, and e-reader. Juggling serious work? The upper screen presents a typical Windows 7 OS while the lower pane hosts one of six keyboards. Catching up on Modern Family? Fill the top window with Hulu7 day free trial of Hulu Plus while you cruise Wikipedia for spoilers below. And if you're feeling literary, turn the Libretto sideways and load up Toshiba's ebook software. It shows one page on each side, just like the printed books Grandpappy used to read. For those not quite ready to surrender their physical keyboard, Toshiba will still sell plenty of models equipped with those clickety-clack contraptions.

I dunno call me crazy but I want a keyboard plus no way I'm paying $1100.00 for a NETBOOK! Wired also posted a video that I will admit is painful to watch because its sooooooooooo slow and choppy but here it is

So if the price were more inline with other netbooks would anyone here be intrested in the new odd little netbook?

Re: Laptop With NO Keyboard

Most likely a touch-screen keyboard like on iphones and stuff. Not sure I'd like it myself, my shoulders and arms get real exhausted from working out, even at rest during recovery, so all of that moving your arms around just to touch all over the screen might get tiresome. Probably sounds lazy but even just holding a phone up to your ear for a short time afterward wears your already exhausted shoulders out, hehe. At least with a regular keyboard you can rest your hands/arms in one spot. Wink


It's amazing how fast a light can go out.
