I'm Dan Aquin and we're here taking a look at the Toshiba radius 11 this is another entry in the growing field of laptop tablet hybrids that use what we call the full-back hinge and of course we originally saw this in the yoga a lot of other guys have had it to achieve actually as a 15 inch version of the radius that does the same thing here's their 11 inch version and if you haven't seen these before hard to imagine it starts off like a clamshell laptop then you tilt the screen back and it keeps going and you can stop in this mode which we call kind of a kiosk mode they say you can flip it around and use it like a table tent I've never seen anyone actually do that but you can do that you keep folding it and then you've got basically a big sort of thickish tablet the keyboard is on the back here but it's you know deactivated so you can just use it either as a as a landscape or a portrait tablet you can't lay it down and just flat on the table if you want like that and then just pop back to the clamshell mode I think the reason why people like these systems is that unlike a lot of other hybrids they don't mess around with that clamshell laptop shape so you can just use it like a regular productivity machine and you're not really even going to notice that it has any special hybrid abilities until you want to use them what's different about the radius 11 compared to some other models is that it's a fan 'less design so doesn't have any air vents on it maybe will run even a little bit quieter it'll come with Celeron or Pentium CPUs other ones like this cost between four and five hundred dollars I expect it to be about the same for this model and it should be out around the end of October I'm Dan Akron and that is the Toshiba rias 11
