Toshiba has announced that its Excite 10 LE tablet, formerly called the Excite X10, will be arriving in stores March 6, coincidentally just one day ahead of the iPad 3 event. Perhaps due to the extreme bulkiness of the Toshiba Thrive, the company has taken a 180 with the Excite 10 LE, designing it to be the world's thinnest and lightest tablet.

CES 2012 Tablet Round-Up
This year’s Consumer Electronics Show revealed itself to be the real Ice Cream Sandwich treat for tablets in the Android sector, with one whole load of crap tablets attempting to burst the bubble of the very few high-class units that were or will be soon certified by Google. On the Windows 8 side of things, there were certainly some tablets to be seen, but certainly not to be touched – Windows 8 will be ready later this year, but Microsoft wasn’t having it when it came to showing it off fully here at the convention. Then there’s oddities galore like the Samsung Galaxy Note, a device we’d seen late 2011, but until now had never had a chance to peek at it on a USA carrier – it’s time!

This television includes passive 3D, on-board cable program guide, and all the bells and whistles you'd hope any modern Smart TV would hold. And with such a tiny bezel around this display that'll be offered in two sizes this spring, 47-55 inches never looked so gigantic - or if it did, it looks bigger than ever now!
