Toshiba showed off its first Android tablet at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show in early January, but it divulged only some of the juicy details, such as its 10.1-inch screen, rubberized finish and swappable battery. Thanks to this new teaser Website, users looking forward to seeing the device know it will run Android 3.0, code-named "Honeycomb," with full Flash support when it arrives this spring. Unlike, the Motorola Xoom, there are four physical buttons in the front of the Toshiba tablet to help users access the machine, which is powered by an Nvidia Tegra 2 graphics chip and offers 1280 x 800 resolution and a 16:10 aspect ratio. The device also supports WiFi and Bluetooth for wireless connectivity. When the Toshiba tablet arrives, it will challenge Apple's hit iPad, the Motorola Xoom, which is launching next month, and other offerings based on Microsoft Windows 7, HP webOS and other platforms. eWEEK provides a quick tour of the unnamed Toshiba tablet in this slideshow.

1. Apple has plenty of display supply locked in. Zero doubt about that.

This past quarter, Apple spent $3.9B as a prepayment to secure some components for future products (like they had previously done with flash memory). Seems very likely that these were displays.
