Acer's 7-Inch Honeycomb Tablet Coming The Following Month for $300

Acer is constantly on the disregard the memo that Android pills aren't said to be listed well. Its 7-inch tablet, the Acer Iconia A100, will get to August for any mere $300 -- a minimum of based on a memo delivered to retail partners and snagged by Engadget.

Last we heard, the Iconia Tab were built with a 1024-by-600 resolution display, 1 GHz dual-core Nvidia Tegra processor, front and back cameras and 8 GB of internal storage. Nothing amazing, however the tablet a minimum of sticks out because of its more compact size compared to 10-inch Android pills currently available. We have seen a few others announce 7-inch pills during the last couple of several weeks, including ViewSonic and Huawei, but to date neither company has introduced its product to promote.

Acer initially planned to produce the Iconia A500 in May, but apparently postponed named because of compatibility difficulties with Android Honeycomb, named version of Google's operating-system. That's no real surprise so far, virtually every Honeycomb tablet has include a ten.1-inch, 1280-by-800 resolution display. Android 3.2, however, paves the way to 7-inch pills by supporting the resolution that Acer is applying within the A100.

I love the 7-inch tablet size since it can fit easily in a single hands and enables for simple typing with thumbs. It is also an excellent size for gaming. Still, we have yet to determine how Honeycomb applications result in slightly more compact screens. Bing is presenting methods to make display size management simpler for application designers, however it remains to appear how this'll result in the real life.

If 10-inch pills tend to be more your factor, DigiTimes reviews a rumor that Acer will slash the cost of their 10-inch Iconia A500 tablet from $450 to $395. Apparently the organization really wants to stay competitive with Asus' Eee Pad Transformer tablet, echoing the companies' fierce fight for netbook computer dominance in the past years, although I would not be surprised if Acer is fed up with being trounced through the iPad too.
