Toshiba’s Announces New Windows 10 Back-To-School Laptops

Toshiba has announced their entire back-to-school lineup of laptops and 2-in-1 products.

The company is expanding its Satellite C Series, which is currently its top-selling line of portable computers.

The new Series C will be available in both 15.6- and 17.3-inch sized, both of which are HD TruBright displays. Additionally, both sizes will come with a dedicated Cortana button for easy access to Microsoft’s new virtual assistant. These C Series laptops will be available starting at $394.99 MSRP.

Next, the company announced the Satellite Fusion, a new line of 2-in-1 touchscreen laptops that can be converted into a tablet. The Fusion features a 15.6-inch touchscreen display, and packs up to 12GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive all into a case that is less than an inch thick.

Toshiba also announced the Satellite Radius, another 2-in-1 line targeted at video enthusiasts. The Radius will feature the first 2-in-1 PC to offer a 4K screen option, and also come with Harman Kardon stereo speakers.

The Satellite L Series also received an update, with two new laptops both featuring Skullcandy tuned stereo speakers. Both of these devices will retail for under $600 dollars, and come pre-installed with Windows 8.1 with a few upgrade to Windows 10 when it becomes available.

The Satellite S series was the last line updated by Toshiba today, and also will offer a 4K ultra HD screen option. The devices will feature quad-core and dual-core processor options, and up to 2TB of storage.

All devices will ship this summer with Windows 10 either pre-installed or available as a free upgrade.

Square’s New Apple Pay And Chip Card Reader Available To Pre-Order

Shortly after going public, Square announced that its new card reader is now available to pre-order on its website for $49. The new reader will ship in early 2016. It’s been a slow roll-out for the company’s new reader as Square first teased it at Apple’s WWDC in June. Compared to the good old Square reader that you put in your headphone jack, this one packs a few new features. First, it supports Apple Pay, and potentially other contactless payment systems. It has an NFC chip and a tokenization system for secure contactless payments. Second, the new bigger design comes with a new slot for chip cards in case you can’t pay with your phone. Finally, it’s a wireless reader that connects to your phone or tablet using Bluetooth. It has a small built-in battery and you can recharge it with a standard microUSB port. According to Square’s website , 100 retailers are already using the new reader. But the company has yet to ship the new rea...

Report: Amazon Is Building An App To Let Normal People Deliver Packages For Pay

Amazon is apparently enlisting everyday humans in its network of endless online shopping delivery. The WSJ reports that the ecommerce giant is working on an app internally that would allow the average consumer to make a little cash by picking up Amazon packages at various retail locations and dropping them off at their final destination. WSJ’s sources did not have a timeline for the release of this product, internally called ‘On My Way,’ and were unsure whether it would launch at all. Amazon has spent years not only iterating the way it tailors your online shopping experience — the mega retailer has one of the best suggestion engines in the business — but also the way that it gets you your products with speed and convenience. Besides the standard shipping (or two-day for Prime members), Amazon has fiddled with the idea of letting Uber drivers and yellow cabs deliver products same-day, as well as using bike messengers and third-party delivery services for Prime N...

India’s Nexus Venture Partners Announces New $450M Fund

Nexus Venture Partners — the top-tier Indian VC firm which counts Snapdeal , Etsy-like Craftsvilla and medtech startup Lybrate in its portfolio — has reloaded for more deals after it announced its newest $450 million fund. The fund, which is the nine-year-old firm’s fourth to date, takes it to over $1 billion in capital under management — becoming the first Indian VC to reach that milestone. Nexus, which has invested in more than 60 companies to date, said the capital will be used for seed and early-stage deals once again. In particular, the firm is looking closely at retail, financial services, health and education in the consumer space, in addition to promising companies in the enterprise space. Nexus’ previous fund — its third — closed at $270 million in 2012, but now it has ramped up in line with increased interest and activity in India’s startup space. “We are thankful to our investors that continue to ba...
