The star of the announcement is a tablet-ultrabook hybrid called the Satellite U925t. The device -- which converts into a tablet when a user slides the display back and up -- runs as an ultrabook on Windows 8 and in tablet mode to access Windows apps.

Hybrids are becoming increasingly popular in the tech space, appealing to consumers who are looking for an ultra-lightweight device that can double as a tablet. But what's strange about the satellite U925t is that the display folds up, instead of down.
Even still, the device packs a heavy punch under the exterior, boasting a third-generation Intel Core i5 processor with Intel Rapid Start, a 128GB solid state drive and fast DDR3 1600MHz memory.
Weighing in at only 3.2 pounds and measuring just 0.78 inches thick, the 12.5-inch diagonal HD touchscreen is made from Corning Gorilla Glass and features a front HD webcam, as well as a rear 3MP webcam with auto-focus. Other specs include Bluetooth v4.0, an HDMI port and USB 3.0 ports.
Toshiba also announced the Satellite U845W, the first-ever laptop with an ultra-wide 21:9 cinematic display (1792 x 768 resolution) designed for entertainment consumption. The company is touting the device as a conventional PC performer, but with slimmer styling, less weight and greater durability.
The device -- which weighs 3.5 pounds -- also includes a third-generation Intel Core i5 or i7 processor with Intel Rapid Start, 500GB hard drive with 32GB SSD cache or 256GB SSD or 6GB DDR3 1600MHz memory. It features a 14.4-inch diagonal HD TruBrite display, a split-screen utility that supports multiple windows on the display in Desktop mode, as well as three USB 3.0 ports, an HDMI port and a 1.3 MP Webcam.
Other announcements include the Satellite U945, a four-pound Windows low-cost ultrabook affordably-priced Ultrabook for everyday productivity and entertainment, with a third-generation Intel Core i3 or i5 processors (ULV) with Intel Rapid Start technology, one USB 2.0 port, and two USB 3.0s and a 14-inch diagonal LED Backlit TruBrite display.
Meanwhile, the Satellite P845t boasts a Windows 8 touch experience in a traditional clamshell laptop form factor with a 14-inch diagonal HD Capacitive touch display (1366x768).
Toshiba also detailed its Canvio Personal Cloud, a device which works with iOS, Android, PC and DLNA devices. It allows users to store, share and stream content with remote accessibility to the cloud.

All other products will be available starting Oct. 26.
