Toshiba Thrive 10" tablet PC
On paper, the Toshiba Thrive is a force to be reckoned with in terms of hardware specifications
and available software.
What's Inside
Let's get the technical details out of the way first and cover what kind of computing horsepower
you can expect with the Thrive. Running an Nvidia Tegra 2 APU featuring integrated GeForce
graphics and 1 GB of RAM, the Thrive packs anywhere from 8 to 32 GB of internal memory.
The display is a 10.1-inch, 1280 x 800-pixel HD widescreen capable of 720p native resolution. It
also boasts a full-size USB port as well as a mini-USB slot and an SD card reader for extra
storage space. Front and back cameras and a rubberized, slip-resistant Easy Grip covering on the
back of the device flesh out the specs nicely.
Included Software
Thrive features Android's latest 3.1 "Honeycomb" platform. It also features support for the latest
Bluetooth 3.0 standard. Anything in the Android Market is available to Thrive users in terms of
applications, so there's no shortage of options or choice in that department. Thankfully, bloat
software is mostly limited to trial versions of QuickOffice and a security suite that's good for a
month.
What customers say
Early reviews for the Toshiba Thrive 10.1" have been uniformly positive in terms of speed and
functionality. The system is sprightly and responsive thanks to its superb hardware, and the stock
configuration of the Honeycomb operating system provides seamless and smooth interaction for
the user. Though a bit thicker and heavier than some tablets, the Thrive makes up for it with its
power and versatility. The battery will provide anywhere from 6 to 10 hours of operation
depending on your usage, which isn't bad considering the computing horsepower the Thrive
manages to pack under the hood.
