Toshiba's MID makes Android Unintuitive - Quite an Achievement
In June this year Toshiba celebrated 25 years of notebook and laptops production by unveiling a number of products it believed represented the shape of things to come in the mobile computing world.
One of the devices was the AC100, a netbook lookey-likey powered by Nvidia’s Tegra technology and running Google’s smartphone OS - Android 2.1. Aimed at those after a very portable Internet experience, we have mixed feelings about the WC100 – and feel it’s a bit of a missed opportunity.
Let’s start with the good. At only 870g the AC100 isn’t a device you’re going to have any problems lugging around, while the fanless system (more on that later) has allowed Toshiba to cram the WC100’s components into a tiny chassis measuring only 21mm at its thickest.
Battery life is also a selling point for the WC100, and the six hours twenty nine minutes we got of video playback is impressive.
Toshiba AC100: Design and Build
The tough, matt black plastic employed in building the chassis – with an inoffensive crosshatch pattern – makes the WC100 almost impervious to scuffs and scratches, great for a life on the road.
The 10.1-inch screen features a detailed 1024 x 600 pixel resolution and is very bright and a pleasure to view photos and videos on. The AC100’s keyboard, although a little cramped, is more than usable – although there’s no delete key which a regular typist might miss.
802.11n Wi-Fi is onboard for speedy wireless networking, while a 3G module is also included. This means that, having purchased a tariff and SIM card from a network provider, you’ll be able to surf the web/browse your email away from Wi-Fi hotspots.
