Toshiba Thrive Has All the Right Connections
Whenever folks talk about a tablet being a “laptop replacement,” this seems quite ridiculous. Most folks have tons of data on a flash drive, and yet their tablet has no port to accept it. No, those skinny tablets are all about good looks, and fall flat on their face when it is time to get [...]

Netbooks just don’t have it easy these days. Those darling, inexpensive tiny computers keep facing competition from the iPad, and a ton of tablet competitors.

As much as netbooks are great portable devices, they consistently have one drawback… lousy speakers. Seriously, the anemic speakers on just about all notebooks make you not miss that you can’t watch HD video. While audio quality has been a weakness of all portable computers, the netbook exemplifies it for sure. Toshiba is taking this issue [...]

The Toshiba Folio 100 showed up at the recent IFA, and has some nice parts. Hits include the 10 inch screen, the 16 GB of RAM, and the Tegra 2 processor. The device runs on the Android OS, which should get that community interested. I also like that it does have more ports than the [...]
