Toshiba's Excite 10 LE is the thinnest, lightest 10-inch tablet yet, an achievement made more impressive by the inclusion of Micro-HDMI, Micro-USB, and microSD memory expansion.
In terms of hardware, Toshiba includes an impressive array of ports and capabilities considering the tablet's slender profile. On the left edge, you get a Micro-USB port for transferring media and (slowly) charging, along with a headphone output, microSD memory slot, and Micro-HDMI video output.
The back of the Excite is covered in a thin sheet of brushed magnesium alloy. Aside from the fact that this light, soft metal feels an awful lot like plastic, we have no problem with it.
The Toshiba Excite 10 LE's front camera is ringed in chrome (shown here on the right edge), tricking some people in CNET's offices into thinking it's a home button.
