Toshiba is still trying in the tablet market after multiple fails, and this tablet might show why they are failing. They have introduced the ‘budget’ tablet which has a 1GHz CPU, 512mb RAM, 8GB internal storage, and all that on a 7 inch screen. The problem is the budget tablet will cost around $400 and that isn’t very budget priced. Fork over only $100 more and you can have a quad-core Transformer Prime. Basically the tablet should be around the $299 price range or lower but if this is what Toshiba wants to do we will have to see how the market reacts.

I started out as a Blackberry user and once that phone was stolen I went to Radio Shack looking at the HD2. Blackberry wasn't cutting it and admittedly I didn't know much about technology, or Android at that point so I looked at the phone with the biggest screen. I'm a media guy and I like to have it mobile. At that point the HD2 had a massive screen and that's exactly what I wanted. Immediately when I got there the manager talked me out of getting a windows device and talked me into Android. I didn't know much about CPUs, Android versions, or what a good spec sheet even looked like. I settled with the Samsung Sidekick and immediately began to hate Android. Probably from the ugly skin and the terrible specs that device had. I started looking how to make the device better and found XDA. That's when it all changed. I started learning about rooting, and flashing. From there I would go on to come across Android websites. How I found Land of Droid was through Twitter. I used #android once and John mentioned me asking if I would like to write for an Android blog. I was hesitant at first but I began to immediately love it. I am now a huge technology fan in all aspects not just mobile. Now when looking for a device I will now know that there are more to specs than a screen size.
