UK: Toshiba AT200 available exclusively through Carphone Warehouse starting at 399 GBP
Not sure that many folks dig Toshiba’s tablets, but then again – I may be wrong. We gotta give it to the Japanese company for their super-thin (7.7mm) AT200 model (aka Excite X10) that makes the iPad and many other Android tablets feel too bulky. And now this handsome device is available in the UK, with the Carphone Warehouse scoring the exclusive launch deal. The 16GB tablet could be yours for 399 GBP (about $633), while the 32GB version is selling for 50 GBP more (449 GBP ~ $712). Specs … Read more

Toshiba shows off 5.1, 7.7 and 13.3-inch Android tablets at CES
Toshiba seems to be planning to introduce an array of new tablets with the Japanese company showing off some cool models at the CES in Las Vegas. More precisely, they have devices with 5.1, 7.7 and 13.3-inch screens on display at their booth (as you can see from the gallery below). Unfortunately we’ve no clue whether these babies will ever be launched. We do hope to see more competition in the tablet space, though I’m not sure the screen size is that crucial. Rather Toshiba (and other tablet makers for … Read more

CES 2012: Toshiba Booth Tour
When it comes to the mobile game, Toshiba was all about tablets at this year’s CES. As a matter of fact, they showed some models which are still not officially announced (and we’ll deal with them in a separate post). And while I doubt their Thrive and Excite tablets sell in volumes — no matter how fancy they may seem — the Japanese company must be thinking this is just a start and that sales will come later (this year?). Aside from tablets, Toshiba also had its laptops and TVs … Read more

Hands-on with the Toshiba Excite tablet
CES has yet to even start but that doesn’t mean the news has slowed. Toshiba recently unveiled its newest tablet and it’s no Thrive 2. The Toshiba Excites brings just about anything you’d want from a high-end Android tablet these days when it comes to internal hardware but it’s really an experience to have the thing in your hands. Upon first glance, the Excite doesn’t look like much more than your run of the mill, “us to” Android tablet. Then again, there’s only so much you can do with the … Read more

Toshiba to show off super-thin tablet at CES 2012
Last year, Toshiba used CES to showcase its first Android tablet and it looks like it will be showing off another iPad competitor at this year’s show. Leaks suggest that Toshiba will have the “world’s thinnest” tablet to go along with a waterproof OLED screen. Our friends at Phandroid are saying that this tablet should be called the Excite and it will sport a 10.1-inch 1280 x 800 display and the device will be just 7.7 mm thick. That makes it even thinner than the super-thin iPad 2 and the … Read more

Toshiba Thrive gets Android 3.2 update
Toshiba released Android 3.2 update for its 10-inch tablet – Thrive. The new software (version 3.2.1.31.5.0002) brings a number of bug fixes and improvements, including: Improved compatibility mode enhancing the way applications originally designed for smaller screen devices appear and function on the larger tablet display. Improved screen rotation acceleration. Added extended screen support API, giving developers more precise control over the user interface across a range of Android-powered devices. On the downside though, this release is said to block the root method that was found earlier on so if … Read more

Greenpeace puts BlackBerry dead last in eco-friendliness
RIM made its debut in the Greenpaece Guide to Greener Electronics this month, and it’s not a good start. The maker of BlackBerry is dead last among other electronics manufacturers, including LG, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, Nokia, and Apple. RIM gets a beating in the ratings for not providing external verification of its greenhouse gas emission reduction, nor setting any renewable energy targets for the future. RIM apparently works with trade associations that oppose stringent energy efficiency standards in products, though RIM does avoid using conflict minerals in production, and gets … Read more
