Toshiba is showing a 7-inch multimedia tablet, the JournE touch, reports Engadget.

The JournE features a 7 inch touchscreen display and uses an ARM-based processor. It packs 802.11b/g WiFi and runs Windows CE 6.0 Pro, but it looks like there’s a custom user interface and some custom software including an RSS reader and support for YouTube, notes Liliputing. Video formats WMV, DivX, and H.264 are supported and it can output sub-1080p video over an HDMI plug in the dock.

The default web browser is the mobile version of Internet Explorer and a company rep says they are considering Android as an OS. The device is only 14mm thick and weighs just under a pound. There’s 1GB of built-in storage, but that can be expanded via the SD slot, and the device can access external storage over USB. Apparently it will cost about (249 Euros or about $356 US) when it becomes available, probably later this year.
