Toshiba Portege 3480CT (PP348C-4PU82) PC Notebook

Pros: Good looking, light and thin. Excellent screen quality
Cons: Pointing device, conflicts between devices. Lack of common ports. Placement of IR port/indicator lights.

I looked forward to my 3480CT arriving, the replacement for my much loved and used Portege 3110. I relished having more power from the 600mhz P3 processor and the 192mb RAM (upgraded). The 12GB hard drive would also be a bonus, as my 3110s 6GB unit was...

Pros: Great looks, nice weight if you don't need options
Cons: Too much externals if you need more options

What would everyone look for in an ideal portable system? Thin, light, and all-in-one system without having to swap devices back and forth. I thought i found my partner when i get this Portege 3480ct.
The first day i got it, it really does look...

Pros: Lightweight, Fast, great screen
Cons: Battery life

OK, let me start by saying that I am the type of user who chooses portability over power. My previous laptops were Librettos (may they rest in peace) then the recent Portege 3110 and now this bad boy. They have change everything I complained about the...

Pros: liteweight, handsome, efficient
Cons: keys small, must buy various peripherals

This review is for my second Toshiba 3480CT. The first one, purchased online for $2450 in September, came with several burnt out pixels in the screen and some internal feedback noise that compromised the built-in modem. However, Buy.com took it back with...

Pros: Lightweight, fast, great screen, well built
Cons: Cramped keyboard takes some getting used to

I've had my 3480 for about a week now and I simply love it. For what it's designed to do it's an excellent PC. It's super lightweight and fast, feels rugged and well built, has a nice keyboard feel, and has an excellent (albeit) small display. The day...

Pros: Thin, lightweight, powerful, cool
Cons: not for NT 4.0 users

The 3480 is identical to the 3440 except that it has a PIII 600 SpeedStep Processor instead of a PIII 500 and a larger hard disk. Here are the basic stats:

- Pentium III 600 Mhz SpeedStep
- 64 to 192 MB Ram
- 12 GB hard drive
...

Pros: Awesome Screen, Hard drive speed, Keyboard, Sound
Cons: NONE

Well, I thought I'd give a second opinion after having this little beauty on the road for a while. I travel for a living across 17 States by car, and rely heavily on the laptop I have for so very much indeed. I have now had this unit on the road for a...

Pros: Light in weight, Monitor, Size,
Cons: Bad design, possible manufacturing recall

I am actually the computer administrator for epinion member: dhusch. With that said...let me tell me give you my opinion.

Why was this product purchased? It looked very good on paper and on other internet sites that have evaluated it. The...

Pros: Awesome screen, good keyboard, all of the features you need
Cons: once in a while I hit the up arrow instead of the shift, but I feel time will fix this

After spending a month of exhaustive research and trials of all of the "UltraThin" class of PC portables out there, I came to the conclusion that I had to try a Toshiba 3480CT, the newest entry from Toshiba. This svelt laptop is a mear .8"...

Pros: small, light weight, windows 2000 preinstalled
Cons: Hot under hand, No internal CD

Three weeks ago the first unit arrived with problems. The PC card stopped working when the unit heats up. Also the computer gets uncomfortably hot where I rest my right hand after about 30 minutes of use. We sent the unit to a local service center to...
