First Take: Toshiba Qosmio G30
The Toshiba Qosmio G30 is the most feature-rich home entertainment notebook we've seen to date, bar none.
Asus W2V
The W2V proves that you don't need Media Center to enjoy a good multimedia notebook experience. It's a pity, then, that the battery isn't a bit meatier.

Very impressive technology, with a strange double role, and a price tag that matches its massive size.
