Today Toshiba suggested two new products that verge on the anorexic: A superskinny Android Honeycomb tablet, and a svelte cover companion.

In box you do not think me, Toshiba's tablet, the AT200, measures in at usually 7.7 mm thick. For comparison, the iPad 2 is 8.8 mm thick. The AT200 features a 10.1-inch manifestation with 1280 x 800 resolution. Inside, it's got a dual-core TI OMAP 4430 processor that clocks in at 1.2 GHz, with 1 GB of RAM.

Over a dozen new tablets have been denounced so far this year, from the Motorola Xoom to the musty Fusion Garage Grid 10 . Many have taken Apple's lead by slimming down their mobile products . Toshiba denounced its 10-inch Thrive inscription progressing this summer, but a few gadgets gifted a few bugs after the primary release.

Toshiba's Portege Z830 cover takes target at the MacBook Air market. At its thickest point, the Z830 is 0.63 inches, and it weighs usually 2.45 pounds. It's encased in a magnesium and aluminum compound shell, and is just large sufficient to residence all of the ports you need: two USB 2.0, one USB 3.0, VGA out, SD card reader, ethernet, and HDMI.

Toshiba's Portege Z830 isn't as absolute as other similar notebooks on the market, as it features a rather less-powerful Core i3 processor. But what it lacks in power, it creates up in battery life and price; the extract is ostensible to final for 8 hours, and the entry-level Z830 expenses beneath a grand. Higher-end configurations can add a Core i5 or i7 processor.

The Portege Z830 will be existing in the U.S. in November, but no date has been pegged is to AT200's release.
