With the current-generation Toshiba Qosmio G30 barely out of the gate, plans for the next refresh, the G40, have already been leaked.

The big G40 news is that the laptop will come with an HD DVD burner, which you can use to burn discs and then export the video to HDTV using the portable’s HDMI 1.3 port. The new Qosmio will also sport new 512MB GeForce 8600 GT graphics and two 200GB hard drives, along with the same 2GHz Core 2 Duo chip and 17-inch display.

In light of its $3,000 price tag, the new Qosmio still won’t be showing up in many employees’ hands–but that doesn’t mean we can’t dream about it.
