We've got more information on Toshiba's Folio 100, the latest tablet to join the party here at IFA alongside Apple's iPad and the Samsung Galaxy Tab.

It's a 10.1in tablet with Android 2.2 (so flash support), SD card slot, HDMI out, USB, support for 1080p video.

The spec includes a touchscreen, webcam, wifi, Bluetooth, 7-hour battery life and it weighs 760g – twice the weight of the Samsung Galaxy Tab announced earlier this week.

"Our Folio 100 media tablet offers a seamless, easy-to-use experience across entertainment, social networking and mobile internet," says Marco Perino, general manager for digital life products at Toshiba.

The device comes with a selection of applications pre-installed, including Opera Mobile web browser, FBReader (e-book reader), Adobe Flash 10.1 and Fring, an app that combines with the built-in webcam to enable video calls.

Also included is Toshiba Market Place, the company's new cloud-based portal service offering downloadable content. Music Place offers a wide range of music from 7Digital.com, and Radio Place provides access to internet radio stations.

Powering Folio 10 is a Nvidia Tegra 2 processor, and there's 16GB of onboard storage – further expandable via SD card.

The Folio 100 will be available in Q4 of this year for £329. A 3G version will follow soon afterwards.
