No problem with this model. It work perfectly.

The advantage is weight : lesser than 1,5 kg : a perfect companion
Screen is enough to work : 13'. Do not select less than : 10 and 11'
are unusable to work on picture.
Power supply is very small.
Battery consumption : around 5-6 hours in power save mode. Really great.

I use it to develop, make presentation at school, and play with my
picture at home, where i can connect it to a large flat screen (27')

There is an HDMI connector : I can play DIVX and MKV without problem on a HD tv.

HDD capacity is around 320Gb.

Keyboard is really a pleasure to use. The new model out recently by
Toshiba are not too good.

T230 is out in august 2010.

computer is make with not a good quality of plastic. It's only the
problem. But i cannot found a PC with the same quality than a Macbook
(but it's not the same price)

To conclude : it's really a good choice to be mobile with a computer.
