New Toshiba tab with pen and 2560x1600 screen

Toshiba Excite tablets announced: Excite Pro, Excite Write, Excite Pure, running Android 4.2 | Pocketnow

Interesting, but as a former Toshiba THRiVE owner I wonder what level of support and updates Toshiba will provide for these new devices. It was less than stellar for the THRiVE which, BTW, was a really good tab IMO.

Despite the screen resolution, I'd still opt for the Note 10.1 if I had to make the choice. I don't think Toshiba can do the pen as well as Samsung has, and not having a place to put the pen in the tablet is a stunningly bad design choice. Speaking of stunningly bad design choices, what's up with those huge bezels?

Have to agree that not having a built-in place to store the pen is a terrible choice. On the subject of bezels though, I have to say that they don't look any bigger than those on the GN 10.1. JMO
