Toshiba's 13-inch Ice Cream Sandwich tablet has TV capabilities

Before everything we just want to point out that having an antenna stick out of your device is never classy. It's not pretty to look at and to be completely honest, it's a little embarrassing to whip out. Think of all those phones with an antennae that you didn't buy specifically for that reason? Regardless, Toshiba is bringing sexy back to the antenna, oops, we mean "TV tuner"  by putting it on their quad-core Tegra 3-powered 13.3-inch Android tablet. The display is pretty impressive, to be honest, and we love the different ports it allows the user to have like HDMI, micro USB, and even an SD card.

The folks over at Techfokus spotted this baby at the Toshiba World 2012 exhibit in Germany and we sure are grateful they did. It doesn't quite have a creative name, but the bigger-than-the-iPad tablet called AT330 is revealed to have a 5-megapixel camera in the back and a 1.3-MP one in the front. We still don't understand the presence of an antenna sticking out of it, it's beautiful on its own and with the abundance of content from the cloud we can't imagine why that would be necessary.

How about some love there, Toshiba? If the local telenovelas are any good on the AT330 maybe we can throw our apprehension toward the antenna out the window.
