Toshiba to show slim HD-DVD drive

Toshiba look set to lift the curtains on their new HD-DVD 1x drive for notebooks when CEATEC rolls around. Although HD-DVD drives are now available on various notebooks, this offering from Toshiba is slightly different as it comes in an extremely slim design which will bode well for notebook manufacturers. Toshiba has issued a statement that sample drives will be made available to vendors by the end of the year - that means us consumers could see notebooks carrying these spanking new drives as early as the first half of 2007. It would be interesting to see Toshiba include these new drives in its Qosmio Media Center line of notebooks.
