More notebooks news from the Toshiba Front! If the Satellite notebooks got an update, how could the Dynabooks stay behind? The Dynabooks are the company's light-weight notebooks and the latest additions include; the Toshiba Dynabook SS S30 and the Toshiba Dynabook SS M36.

Since mobility is the keyword here, both notebooks are equipped with a high resolution 12.1 inch display and loaded with Windows XP Professional (SP2). However it is the S30 which impresses us with it 13 hours battery life which is possible due to the slow-spinning 4,200 rpm 30GB hard drive and Core Solo U1300 processor. Thus the S30 is an ideal notebook for those on the road! Other features include; 12.1 WXGA polysilicon liquid crystal, Intel 945GM Express , 512MB RAM, Wi-fi, LAN and 3 USB Ports. Prices start from $2,300 and it will be available from next month.

The Dynabook SS M36 may not have a whopping 13 hour battery life, but is it superior to the S30 where specs are concerned. This one draws it juice from an Intel Core 2 Duo T5500 Processor and includes features like; 12MB RAM (up to 2GB), a 40GB hard drive, and a combo CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive. Users can also opt for a Celeron Processor if money is an issue and this too will see a December release. Prices start from $1,700 for the Core 2 Duo Configuration.
