Toshiba’s (News - Alert) digital products division reportedly has launched a new 14.1-inch satellite E105 laptop, available now at Best Buy retail stores.

 
In a survey conducted by Best Buy, most consumers said their ideal laptop would feature: longer battery life; sleek and lightweight design; good warranty; and the ability to work with the keyboard in poor lighting, as in airplanes or movie halls.
 
In an effort to develop a laptop based on Best Buy customers’ feedback and Toshiba market research, Toshiba collaborated with Best Buy stores. Both companies worked together as part of Best Buy’s Blue Label series and created the Satellite E105 laptop, according to the companies.
 
Key features of the E105 laptop include: battery life of up to 5.5 hours; 14.1 inch diagonal display screen; less than 5 pounds in weight; 1.2 inches thin design; backlit keyboard for working in low light conditions; and two-year Toshiba international limited warranty along with 15-month Norton Anti Virus subscription.
 
Other key features and specifications of the E105 laptop include: Microsoft Windows Vista Home premium edition 64-bit operating system; Intel (News - Alert) Core 2 Duo processor- for quieter and cooler operations; Intel Centrino 2 processor technology with Intel Core 2 Duo mobile processor - P8400 with Intel Wireless Wi-Fi Link, 5100AGN network connection; 4GB PC6400 DDR2 SDRAM memory; multi-format DVD±RW/CD-RW drive with double-layer support; 320GB serial ATA  hard drive; built-in fingerprint reader; Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD; built-in webcam and microphone; 5-in-1 bridge media adapter; 2 high-speed USB 2.0 ports; built-in Bluetooth 2.1 with EDR support; built-in 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet LAN with RJ-45 connector; and Toshiba’s Fusion finish exterior – for modern look.
 
“Toshiba’s aim is to produce high quality laptops with features that consumers look for, and our combined effort with Best Buy has helped us further realize this goal,” said Carl Pinto, vice president of product development at Toshiba America Information Systems. “The Satellite E105 is a special laptop, and we are delighted with the result and the opportunity to bring this impressive machine to market.”
 
The satellite E105 laptop has also achieved a Silver status through the Green Electronic Council’s Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool.
