The R600 takes its design cues from the rest of the Portege line, but reducing the weight to just 1.1kg while measuring 283 x 215.8 x 19.5-25.5mm, the same dimensions as the R500, launched in July.
Despite the svelte dimensions, the laptop remains fully featured, boasting a dual-layer DVD burner, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Ethernet, 0.3-megapixel webcam and fingerprint reader.
The R600 maintains the 12.1in, 1280 x 800 screen of its predecessor, though users will have a choice of two new specifications: a 1.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 1GB of RAM and a 128GB solid-state drive, or a cheaper 1.2GHz Core 2 Duo with with 2GB RAM and a 160GB SATA hard disk.
Toshiba is also claiming a hefty nine hours of battery life for the R600, which could be a strong selling point should it pan out.
The R600 has only appeared on Toshiba's Canadian website thus far, with prices beginning at £1,222.
