Toshiba Kirabook review: finally, a flagship Windows 8 laptop
Author: James Cliff
Typically when I meet with a manufacturer to talk about new products, they’re coy about mentioning their competitors. They refer to “our competition,” or “other players,” or “similar devices.” Every company wants me to believe it’s the only company on the planet, that any others aren’t even worth the lip service.
That’s what made my last meeting with Toshiba so odd. While showing me the new Kirabook, the highest-end ultrabook the company has ever made and the first in a new line, the company’s product managers and PR reps couldn’t stop talking about Apple. They told me “we’re lighter than Air,” and compared “apples to apples — our apples to Apple’s apples.” While other manufacturers have raced to the bottom and to the lowest…

Toshiba to launch TVs with DivX Plus Streaming certification
Author: Brandon Zimmerman
Just in case you didn’t have enough content options from the likes of Roku and your cable set top box, Toshiba has partnered with Rovi to integrate the DivX Plus Streaming codec into a new line of TVs. The streaming format promises enhanced multimedia controls like multi-language subtitles, resumable playback across devices and Dynamic Resolution Scaling, which should be good for those with fluctuating bandwidth. However, there aren’t that many services behind the format just yet, though Knowhow Movies by Dixons Retail in the UK has pledged its support. Still, one can never have enough ways to entertain the kids.

New Toshiba AT10LE-A tablet leaked: Tegra 4, Android 4.2 and a keyboard dock
Author: Jenny Zhao
You might not have noticed, but Toshiba’s been playing the Android tablet game for the last few years. Now, a new leak suggests Toshiba’s next slab will house NVIDIA’s new Tegra 4 mobile chip (clocked at 1.8GHz, according to an AnTuTu benchmark) and almost the very latest version of Android — that’s 4.2.1, if you’ve been keeping count. According to techblog.gr‘s stolen glances, there’s also a dockable keyboard with chiclet keys, but no trackpad. It appears to be more of a standalone dock than connected lid, with the tablet connected and propped at an angle rather then joined at a seam, although it may lie on top of the tablet to protect the screen when not in use.
We also got a peek at the ports along one of the edges, which includes micro-USB, micro-HDMI and a microSD slot, but no word just yet on internal storage and, well, much else at this point — not a digitizer in sight. We’ve added a shot of the keyboard add-on after the break and if you’re interest has been piqued, there’s more photos at the source.

Toshiba Canvio Connect drive backs up mobile devices through Pogoplug
Author: Melissa Shroeder
While we’re used to connected hard drives that share their contents with phones and tablets, the reverse isn’t common — why don’t many of these drives safeguard our mobile content from the start? Toshiba is as baffled as we are, so it’s launching its Canvio Connect portable drive with handheld access in mind. While the USB 3.0 disk has no built-in networking of its own, a software bundle for Macs and PCs (we’ve confirmed that it’s Pogoplug) lets travelers back up photos and videos from their Android and iOS devices, reach the drive’s files through the internet and partake in 10GB of free cloud storage. The new Canvio can also serve as a traditional external drive for computers, although it’s still improved in that space when the enclosure is about a third shorter than that of its predecessors. Toshiba expects the mobile-savvy Connect to arrive in mid-May at prices ranging from $ 99 for a 500GB model through to $ 190 for a 2TB version.

Toshiba mobile RAM uses prediction, adaptation to cut power use by up to 85 percent
Author: Angela Stephens
RAM remains one of the principal drains on a smartphone’s battery: it’s almost always in use, and it saps power even when its host device is idle in a pocket. Toshiba hasn’t eliminated that demand entirely, but its new SRAM (not yet pictured here) is intelligent enough to cut a lot of the waste. The memory can better predict what power it’s going to need while it’s active, and includes a smarter retention circuit that occasionally wakes up to tweak buffer size while it’s on standby. While these sound all too abstract, they should lead to some very tangible gains. Toshiba estimates that the SRAM chews up 27 percent less power when live, and 85 percent less when it’s just waiting for action. The company doesn’t yet know when the RAM will reach finished devices, but we’re hoping it’s soon when even mainstream phones like the Optimus F7 will ship with 2GB of RAM; that energy draw isn’t going down all by itself.
