According to the Toshiba website, it include support for a Micro SD card, so that cancels out that and as for the resolution, it's a tablet for £39 and you're bothered about screen resolution? :confused:
The screen isn't only low-res, it's also very blurry, touch is inaccurate and the bezels are so big that it makes the iPhone 6 Plus bezels look razor-thin. Honestly, just go buy something else - either a Linx 7, Connect 10, Cesium 90 and so on (all of which were in the same price region). Don't be fooled like me thinking 'Ah Toshiba-built, can't be that bad then', because it really can be.
Also, the Connect 7 was available from Argos Outlet I think (a while back) for £29.99 and that had 32GB of storage (20+ available) and was cheaper with a better display. As others have noted 16GB is too tight for many things unless you just want a web browser, in which case it's questionable why you wouldn't get an Android tablet which is probably better for it.

You clearly know very little about Windows tablets. 16GB's of storage is a MISERABLE amount of space to work with. App to SD card support only solves part of the problem.
1024x600 is also a poor screen resolution which has implications for application support.
Add in the 1GB RAM and you have yourself a tablet that will be v.poor. Which perhaps explains why it is being sold via EBay as a refurb (returned by the previous unhappy customer!).
You don't have to spend anywhere near £100 to solve ALL the problems on this device.

Next you'll be wanting a Ferrari for £100.
I'd say it makes your comment a no-no.

The micro-sd card support doesn't really cancel out that it only has 16GB storage.

Well, no sure but if you can use expandable storage why would this be something to throw a brick at?

From my experience, windows is completely miserable on a screen this size. I've got an 8" windows tablet and it's really a chore compared to android.

Just got a 9" Win tablet and I would say that is the minimum size for Windows.
My Linx 7 is being sold.

The fact you need to ask this question shows your lack of understanding about what is required to run a Windows computer.

The Linx 7s have 32GB storage and you can pick those up for a similar price new with a year of Office 365. Personally I don't find the Linx screen size an issue even in full desktop mode, but I've no idea what the quality of the Tosh screen is to comment.
So cold from me.
