As Android 3.2 Honeycomb with its built-in support for smaller screens got released, there is little surprise that 7-inch tablets, with the latest Google OS on board, started rolling out with a rapid pace. Toshiba is the latest manufacturer to offer a 7-inch slate with the unveiling of its second Thrive Android Honeycomb tablet.
The 7-inch Thrive carries the same styling as its bigger brother, featuring a rugged looking, textured plastic-made back cover, but in a significantly smaller body. The specs include a dual-core NVIDIA Tegra CPU, a gig of RAM, 16 or 32GB of built-in memory expandable through a microSD card slot, and a true HD display with 1280×800 pixels resolution. Two HD capable camera units are aboard a 5MP back snapper, and a 2MP front-facing unit for video chats. Full connectivity suite will be featured, including a microHDMI and microUSB ports. All this functionality will be packed in a body which is 12mm thick, weighing less than 1lb
