Toshiba G450, le batonnet multifonctions
w3sh magazine —
Toshiba vient-il d’inventer l’ultime tout-en-un ? En tout cas, le G450 est plutôt impressionnant : à la fois téléphone, baladeur et modem portable pour son notebook !
Techniquement, l’objet est un modem 3G (UMTS 2100 Mhz, HSDPA 7,2 Mbps), mais également GSM et GPRS/Edge. Côté baladeur, il n’offre que 160 Mo de stockage, ce qui est aujourd’hui beaucoup trop juste.
Pour le reste, cet amusant bâtonnet dispose d’un écran Oled (96×39), un port mini USB 2.0 et est vendu 49 euros en France, assorti d’un abonnement à partir de 20 euros environ.
Toshiba's unusual G450 cellphone / MP3 player / HSDPA USB modem reviewed, liked

After a flurry of leaks and announcements caught our attention last year, we've heard nary a peep from Toshiba about its multi-faceted device since. Suffice to say that's it's out in parts of Europe and countries with a penchant for the backward "R" and "N." Great, but what is it and how well does it do what it does; ...

Toshiba Packs Phone, MP3 Player and USB Stick into a Modem
Wired: Gadget Lab —
IPhone owners might soon be able to use their handsets as modems for their computers, but Toshiba's G450 takes exactly the opposite approach. The little device is a 3G modem first, and a cellphone second. On top of that, Toshiba has squeezed in USB storage and an MP3 player.
Rather than placing the G450 as a regular phone, Toshiba seems to be selling it as a feature-added modem and emergency phone replacement. One look at those two dials tells you that text messaging is all but impossible, but according to the chaps at Into Mobile, in other areas the dongle acquits itself admirably.
The £140 ($205) device is only available in parts of Europe. It uses HSDPA for its connection, so ...
The Toshiba G450: "a 3G modem with benefits."
Boing Boing Gadgets —
... or a memory stick / MP3 player with built-in tri-band GSM cell phone. It's all of those things secondary, while primarily being an HSDPA USB modem capable of dropping back down to EDGE if 3G isn't available. That's a lot of gadget for £140, even if its usability as a memory stick or MP3 player is severely gimped by a measly 160MB of memory. Still, Gadget Lab's Charlie Sorrel defines the G450 best and puts it all in perspective: "a modem with benefits." Yeah.
