Toshiba unveils another marquee laptop under its wing the unveiling of the Toshiba Satellite U505. The Toshiba Satellite series is something quite familiar in the mobile computing scene and this new addition promises to uphold the tradition as far as mobile computing quality is concerned.

But what perhaps makes the Toshiba Satellite U505 appealing is the price it carries despite carrying the same features that people look for in notebooks today. The Toshiba Satellite U505 are ideal for students, home and power users and is priced starting at $699.99.

Among the features of the Toshiba U505:

High Definition Widescreen Display

Cinematic ‘Edge-to-Edge’ Display

New Sleek Flat Keyboard with black matte finish

Illuminating LED Backlit Keyboard

Slot-loading DVD Drive

Touchpad with Multi-Touch Control

Toshiba Power-saving Eco Utility button

Toshiba PC Health Monitor

Hard Drive Impact Sensor

Of course you can expect more features to be discovered along the way. But if there is something you have to consider about the Toshiba Satellite U505, it has to be the track record that they have left behind, something that Toshiba has carried for quite some time now.
