Acer will likely be taking their 1st Android mobile phone 3.0 (Honeycomb) talbet throughout the U.S. on April 24 at a price that’s lower than the iPad of $449.99.

The Acer Iconia Tab A500 could be the company’s 1st Honeycomb-based product and yes it incorporates a 15.1-inch monitor, dual-core Nvidia Tegra 2 processor along with a front- and rear-facing camcorders.

These are the specs:

  • 10.1-inch 1280×800 TFT WXGA screen

Specification-wise, your Iconia Bill A500 is often a dead-ringer to the Samsung Xoom. The only difference; this also is a big difference, can be the price.

Your Xoom moved into the market industry at the wallet-breaking $799.99. Of course this involved a new 3 grams (upgradable for you to 4G) r / c, the belief that your product ultimately ends up pricing $70 greater than the set up of apple’s ipad 2 3G would have been a turnoff to many consumers.

Motrolla presented a new lower-priced Wi-Fi for Xoom at the peak of March, though damage may well have been recently inflicted.

Acer is not just corresponding Apple’s apple iPad 2 price tag, it goes over it by $50. Your Iconia tab A500 will likely be offered entirely in Best Buy stores. Consumers could pre-order the A500 throughout Greatest coupe merchants commencing April 15.
