    Any opinions on the new Android Toshiba Thrive, certainley looks and is speced out very well?
    http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/tablet.to

    Who would be the reseller in Ireland and for that matter Northern Ireland when it is released?
    Like the fact it has flash, long battery life and has the USB, HDMI ports. Hoping to get one to replace an Acer Aspire 751 Netbook, any opinions on this?
    Also, which version would suit, 8GB, 16 GB or 32 GB?

    I imagine currys/pcworld will stock it, they've been pushing tablets recently. You could try asking on their "talk to" forum?

    Certainly looks very well and is indeed specced out nicely. If they can keep the price down in euros I think it would be a bargain!

    Seems to be a few models being launched in July,
    The Lenova Ideapad, HP Touch and Toshiba Thrive,

    Review of the Motorola Xoom not very good, so await reviews on the above. Still wonder just how good or better than a netbook these will be. Need the power of an I5 laptop on the web but not the size or weight:rolleyes:

    Saw this in Tesco for €400. Good specs but no demo model!
