Meet the most innovative laptop on the market! It is called Toshiba Qosmio G55 Q802 and is powered by the new TOSHIBA Quad Core HD Processor technology, also known as the Cell processor technology. This is the world’s first notebook model with this new computer technology and is included in the latest G55 series. I won’t talk about the other models in this line, as the Qosmio G55 Q802 gathers all of their functionalities plus this revolutionary technology.
The first thing you can do with this improvement is to use your laptop and the stored standarddefinition videos for high definition upscaling on enabled TVs, via the HDMI connectivity cable.
Next, you have the possibility to transcode you long video files in a few minutes, and to give you an example, a 1GB movie can be converted in just 10 minutes. Included in this powerful processing capability is the Toshiba Face Navigation, which provides an easy way to locate the part of the video you are interested in watching by choosing facial expressions from thumbnails.
The coolest feature is the Gesture Control technology that allows you to play, pause, fast-forward or rewind videos by waving your hands in the air.
To make these possible, the notebook runs on the Intel’s latest Core 2 Duo processor technology and uses the NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT graphics card supporting 3D graphics processing and DirectX 10. This graphic processing unit can switch between the 512MB discrete graphics needed for intensive applications, and the GeForce motherboard GPU, to increase the battery life.
“In terms of the Qosmio laptop brand, innovation is the key ingredient,” said Jeff Barney, vice president and general manager, Digital Products Division, Toshiba America Information Systems. “The addition of the TOSHIBA Quad Core HD Processor marks a watershed moment in the multimedia and HD segments. Qosmio G55-Q802 laptop PC users now have the power and ability to control and manipulate their personal content with unmatched precision and speed while also enjoying their full DVD collections at resolutions up to 1080i.”
The Cell processor was created by Toshiba, Sony and IBM and is used in the Sony PlayStation 3 and supercomputers.
Other features of the new Toshiba Qosmio G55 Q802 notebook include an 18.4-inch widescreen TruBrite high-definition display, 2 Harman Kardon stereo speakers, one subwoofer, the Dolby Home Theater Dolby Home Theater technology, and the REGZA LINK HDMI technology to connect the laptop to your home theater system.
On the exterior, the laptop sports the Fusion finish with Vibe, white-LED FeatherTouch multimedia buttons and a flush-mounted touchpad. It is available at a price of $1,550 with Windows Vista operating system pre-installed, a 2.0GHz processor, 4GB memory, 500GB HDD, DVD-RW super multi double layer with Labelflash, and the Atheros 802.11 b/g/n WLAN module.
