Android isn't really designed to run on a 13" screen yet. That might be part of the reason the Toshiba Excite 13 failed.

With a computer, 89 ppi isn't that big a problem because you can turn off the font smoothing. With Android you can't, so you need retina resolution to overcome the problem.

These are better, but more expensive:
