Toshiba announces a limited edition 2006 FIFA World Cup notebook with a 'bling bling' gold cover.

Toshiba will only sell 600 of the dynabook TX/870LSFIFA. Toshiba covered the 15.4 inch notebook with gold and imprinted the FIFA World Cup Trophy on it - pure soccer kitsch. The desktop of the dynabook TX has also a soccer theme. The only person I can imagine to own one of these limited edition notebooks in style is Franz Beckenbauer - maybe. Toshiba will start selling the TX/870LSFIFA starting May 26th. Apparently the limited edition notebook will sell only in Toshiba's Japanese online store. No pricing information is available yet. More details in this Toshiba press-release (Japanese).

Toshiba already offered a while back Qosmio G30 notebooks with Soccer World Cup tickets. Find Toshiba Notebook Deals.
