Toshiba NB200-11M review
in Laptops
1 of 4 
Verdict
This netbook holds three aces: superb battery life, a great keyboard and a nice screen. If you can get it for under £300, with or without the current cashback offer, it's a superb buy

I was looking at this, or one like it (the toshiba site has a confusing matrix of variations and I was looking at a brown one) and I do like the keyboard - the dedicated pgup/pgdn keys are nice to see although the backslash has oddly moved to the right of the spacebar and been replaced with the backtick key.
I thought I found a SIM slot in the battery compartment but there was no modem - according to the Toshi site only the NB200-123 has HSDPA built-in and that has a flat keyboard and cost more. I'm beginning to think I should give up looking for the perfect netbook with 3G and get 3's new mifi unit.
