Toshiba has released a Dynabook TX/98MBL which it claims is the “the industry’s first PC supporting the Blu-ray 3D format.” This is the first one that we have heard of that supports Blu-ray 3D and NVIDIA's 3D cunning plan.
According to the press release the Dynabook TX/98MBLJ has a 15.6-inch LED backlit LCD display with 120Hz, an Intel Core i7-740QM processor operating at 1.73GHz, a 640 GB Hard Drive, and 4GB Memory nothing to see here move on please. However there is a blu-ray disk drive, NVIDIA GeForce GTS 350M, Harman/Kardon stereo speakers with Dolby Advanced Audio. Now we are getting somewhere.
The beast then uses NVIDIA 3D Vision Kit which are a pair of active shutter glasses, storage pouch, adjustable nose pieces, USB controller / Infrared emitter, cleaning cloth, and USB cable. In short it is an entertainment laptop with enough horsepower to play back 3D Blu-ray titles and 3D PC games.
The 3D glasses use active shutter technology, which means that the lenses lighten and darken at the same refresh rate (120HZ) as the screen. The beast is designed to view the stereoscopic 3D Blu-ray movies, but it can also be used to play 3D games.
This notebook is projected to launch in Japan in July. Dynabook is a Toshiba brand that’s not sold in the US, though the company may adapt the Dynabook TX/98MBLJ to the US market in the future.
