Toshiba launch first 3D notebook with Blu-ray playback and many more…..

While spreadsheets may not benefit from added depth, movies and gaming can certainly look better in 3D.

Toshiba has introduced a 3D-ready laptop powered by Nvidia’s Vision technology.

Toshiba’s new Satellite A665 comes with Nvidia 3D Vision technology built in and a pair of active shutter glasses so you can watch 3D content on its 15.6in HD display. The glasses connect to the machine via infrared, syncing up the alternate images that make up the different perspectives for each eye and creating a 3D effect.

Notebook specialist Toshiba has announced it will release the industry’s first 3D-ready notebook with built-in Blu-ray drive in Japan this July.

The DynaBook TX/98MBL features a 15.6-inch LED-backlit LCD panel capable of 120Hz refresh rate and will be bundled with 3D stereo glasses. The glasses will operate in much the same way as they do for new 3D television.

Toshiba’s Digital Products Division (DPD) today announced the introduction of its first 3D-ready laptop for the U.S. market. The Satellite A665 3D Edition laptop features a 15.6-inch diagonal TruBrite widescreen LCD display with LED backlighting and a 120Hz refresh rate. NVIDIA 3D Vision software and hardware technologies drive the stereoscopic 3D experience, delivering out-of-the-box compatibility with hundreds of PC games, as well as videos and photos. Equipped with a rewriteable Blu-ray Disc drive3, the A665 is also ready to support content playback in the Blu-ray 3D format as it becomes available in the marketplace. The Toshiba Satellite A665 3D Edition laptop will be available on June 20.

The Nvidia 3D Vision kit, which is packaged along with the Satellite A665, includes software, a pair of wireless active shutter glasses and an emitter.

The USB Sleep-and-Music feature even lets you turn your laptop into a sound system – it can play music from an MP3 player on the laptop speakers even if it’s in sleep or standby mode.
