Handwriting recognition software also ensures that your notes can be translated into text. The Toshiba Portege 3500 has two USB 2.0 ports, a PC card slot, an SD card slot and a Compact Flash card slot. For net use, there is a built-in 802.11b wirelss connectivity and Bluetooth and the battery can support four hours of use.
