Every tablet on the market today is loaded with so many features that it’s almost impossible for manufacturers to add more. Well, if manufacturers reached rock bottom there’s no other option but to turn that rock into a mine – going back is never an option for the IT industry but there’s always a room for improvement. Just look at the new Toshiba Thrive tablet. This tablet has the capability to surf the web, read e-books, and play HD videos, music, and games just like any other tablet. But the only difference is that Thrive does it better – so much better. It features a 10.1-inch, high-resolution, multi-touch, and LED backlit screen and a system that can deliver an unbelievably fast, entertainment optimized, multi-tasking performance. Movies get an extra Toshiba touch with Resolution plus video technology that enhances the sharpness and color on standard definition videos for a more HD like feel.

Toshiba Thrive, with its Toshiba Media Player, holds and manages music and videos in one easy to reach and portable gadget. Its Toshiba-enhanced stereo speakers and integrated headphone jack allow user to share their music loud or listen privately at their leisure. The HDMI port on the other hand allows videos to be played and scaled up to 1080p on any supported HD screen. This tablet also features an SD card slot, USB 2.0, and mini USB ports for added expansion options.
Toshiba Thrive is powered by NVIDIA Tegra 2 dual-core processor and runs on the latest Android 3.1 (Honeycomb) platform optimized for tablets. Furthermore, Thrive features hardware accelerated Adobe Flash and console level gaming graphics thanks to its NVIDIA GeForce video chip. To wrap it all up is a customizable back cover with slip-resistant and rubberized finish that’s easy on the hands.

A new Apple is ripe for the picking this season and sure enough, techies are already looking to grab a bite. Even Snow White would find the new Apple iPad 2 hard to resist and who can blame her, especially when this device is 33 percent thinner and 15 percent lighter than its predecessor. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg; iPad 2 now runs on a more powerful dual-core A4 processor and a battery that can last up to 10 hours. It retained its previous 9.7-inch LED-backlit LCD screen but two new distinctive front and rear mounted cameras were added. Yes, you know what that means – FaceTime. The front VGA camera allows iPad 2 users to make FaceTime video calls to millions of iPhone 4, iPod touch and Mac owners. The rear camera on the other hand can capture 720p HD video.
This Apple tablet operates on iOS 4.3, mobile operating system that features an improved Safari mobile browser, new iTunes Home Sharing, AirPlay enhancements, and Personal Hotspot for Wi-Fi sharing. Other noteworthy features include an integrated gyro for enhanced gaming experience, HSUPA support for faster 3G upload speeds, and HDMI Video Mirroring for duplicating the iPad screen on an HDTV via an adaptor.
