The unnamed Toshiba tablet is, according to Notebook Italia, predominantly metal and glass, unlike the rubberized Thrive, with a 10.1-inch display and microHDMI connectivity.

Toshiba Tegra 2 tablet makes the pre-CES rounds
The good news is that we came across Toshiba's Tegra 2 based tablet at CES 2011 during the company's pre-show event; the bad news is that they were flaunting it amidst some very poor lighting. Running Android 2.2 Froyo, since Honeycomb isn't ready to play on its NVIDIA CPU, the unnamed slate is surprisingly slim in the hands and the display - thankfully, given the patchy performance of the Folio 100's screen - is reasonably impressive.

CES 2011: The Tablet Reboot
We’re having a do-over. 2010 was meant to be the year of the tablet, but it turned out to be something of a flop unless you love iOS. Predictions that we’d see dozens of Android slates turned out to be only partially true: yes, there were tablets a-plenty, but recognizable brand names were generally absent and the flush of OEM models seldom made it onto store shelves. Samsung pushed ahead with the Galaxy Tab, and succeeded in showing us that, while there’s room for more than just the iPad on the market, you really need to have a team of software engineers on hand to fettle Android in order to claim your place.

Tegra 2 Isn’t Enough
It’s easy to get swept up in the hardware race. Several years ago it was PCs and then notebooks; now it’s smartphones and tablets chomping at the bit to clash spec sheets. CES 2011 is expected to bring dual-core mobile CPUs to the fore, with NVIDIA’s Tegra 2 cropping up inside devices like the LG Optimus 2X and slates including Notion Ink‘s much-anticipated Adam. Yet, despite the hype, it’s finally dawning that Tegra 2 – or, indeed, any of the new dual-core chips – isn’t enough.

The Toshiba Folio 100 was meant to be the company's bruising attack on the iPad, but it seems first impressions - from both buyers and retailers - haven't been too hot. Engadget caught wind that UK retailer PC World had yanked the Android slate and so headed down to check out the shelves; they found a Folio 100, heavily overpriced at £999.99 and apparently not worth a penny of it.
