I've heard often enough, from folks here on mobileread looking for 11"+ tablet, well Toshiba has answered those request and more by offering a 13" tablet.
At first I didn't think too much of the 13" tablet, considering 7" tablet is my preferred form factor. However since most bloggers are bashing the 13" tablet I'm thinking this might become a hit--considering bloggers are new "movie critics".
Toshiba's gamble here is based on the studies that have 85-90% of the tablet users using tablets at home, and 85% of those while watching TV.
Below are the specs. I believe the starting price for the 13" tablet is $649.

Among the other specs the Excite 13 touts are a quad-core Nvidia Tegra 3 processor, 1GB of RAM, a 5-megapixel rear facing camera, and four rear-mounted speakers to blast audio from the tablet's aluminum back.
The tablet also sports a 1,600×900 screen resolution, a micro-USB port, a micro-HDMI port and a full-size SD card slot.
