Toshiba is currently the only manufacturer that is interested in NVIDIA’s Tegra 4 processors. It seems that NVIDIA is having a hard time competing against the likes of Qualcomm, who seems to have monopolized the mobile market. ASUS and Acer, who have used NVIDIA’s Tegra 3 processor in the past, have (for the time being) switched over to manufacturing… Read more
Lytro is known for making cameras with some interesting technology. Unlike traditional cameras, when you take a photo with a Lytro, you’re not stuck with the way its focused. It can be refocused with software, putting the point of focus anywhere you want and creating proper depth of field. It’s a really cool concept, but it hasn’t been adopted by the… Read more
Toshiba has been off the radar in the Android world for awhile now, but that doesn’t mean they’ve lost commitment to their older devices. The Excite 7.7 is getting the mighty bump to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, something that struck us as a little shocking at this point.

Well, this is a messy situation for Toshiba. On their community forums, they have stated that they are delaying the Ice Cream Sandwich update for both the 10 and 7-inch Thrive tablet. This is horrible news, considering they originally planned on rolling out the update this past spring. The new date for the update? Early fall. This is about as bad as… Read more
GameStop has already sold Android tablets in-store for some time now, but the initiative was more of a soft-launch with only 200 participating locations. That just changed as GameStop announces they have expanded the Tablet offers to “more than 1,600″ locations around the country. All tablets purchased from GameStop will come with pre-installed titles… Read more
I’ll be the first to say that Toshiba’s release of their Excite 13″ tablet is, in my opinion, a little too much for todays tablet market. A massively over-sized tablet running Ice Cream Sandwich, one has to ask just how much use something this large would get outside of the home or office? Full-screen web browsing on the 1600 x 900 pixels screen? It… Read more
The Toshiba Excite 10, released today, is the middle ground in Toshiba’s planned trio of tablets. The Excite 7.7 satisfies the people who prefer smaller tablets, while the massive 13.3″ Excite 13 is for those who want a laptop-sized tablet. Both the 7.7 and 13 should be released sometime next month. The Excite 10 is powered by a Tegra 3 quad core… Read more

Earlier this month, Toshiba managed to grab some time to show off their brand new 13.3-inch tablet at a conference. However, while Toshiba was more than willing to show off the hardware, the new tablet wouldn’t turn on. It was said to be an Android-based tablet, but the details for the software version were pretty thin. That changes today, as a new… Read more
