Toshiba to release Intel Core i7-based Qosmio X500 laptop

The Intel Core i7 laptops keep coming.  Toshiba just announced its new Qosmio X500 series laptops with the Core i7 that will arrive on October 22, 2009 (a.k.a. Windows 7 launch day).  What’s the rundown on this new series?  Blu-ray drives, a monster 18.4-inch screen, harman/kardon speakers, HDMI out, DDR3 RAM, NVIDIA’s GeForce GTS 250M with 1GB of VRAM, also a configuration with 2 hard drives will be available if you want lots of space.  Plainly, Toshiba is going after gamers and folks who like movies on their laptops.  The multi-touch trackpad has gesture support and seeing as this is a giant of a machine, there is a number pad as well.  Pricing info will be available on October 13, 2009.  Hang tight.

*[Update] We just found out that he Qosmio will start under $1500.  How much under?  We don’t know yet.  Stay tuned.
