[news] Review: A tale of two tablets: Samsung v. Toshiba

Android offers tablets are increasingly attractive for the month. In the "pure" experience Motorola's Android Xoom Transformer versatile and inexpensive Asus inspiring, fans of the Google operating system for boards now have a choice of powerful hardware and the selection is only growing.

I recently spent time with the last pair of Android 3.1 tablets to come from the major manufacturers: Samsung's new Galaxy Tab Tablet 10.1 and Toshiba. (That's its official name in Canada.

It is almost three times thicker than the tab 10. 1, has a bevel width that significantly increases the device surface to surface area and about 200 grams heavier. In other words, you could almost fit three Tab 10.1 lists within a Toshiba Tablet. Suffice it to say that it will not be the first choice for people seeking to use their lists as one hand e-readers.
