Is the toshiba windows or android based?

 it's android based. i've liked the android system in my phone, which is why i kind of want it on a tablet.

 but here's an interesting and rather annoying update. it seems to be the most capable and versatile of the tabs. and toshiba's friggin discontinuing it.  :bhead :furious :mad: at least that's what the guy at hh gregg told me on the phone.
 that explains why i can't find them anywhere.

 now i have to go looking again to see what i like other than that one. i REALLY liked that it had usb ports and a card slot for extra memory........

yea. see thats the deal killer for me. Android. as anything I want to run really is windows based. And there isnt a real way to print from an Android system. Printing is a must for me.
Other low points is many of them have an absurdly low amount of drive space. From alot of the reviews and such I've been reading. After the Os and anything you want is installed. You can end up with very little storage space left.
Another reason for windows for me is you can run android on windows. But you cant run windows on Android

Man, RIM just can't seem to get any love lately.

Amazing really considering where they were in the mobile market say 5-6 years ago.
