Acer announces the Acer Iconia Tab A500 in the US - to launch in April 24th for $449.99


Isn't that magnificent? It's a beauty isn't it? Acer have announced the availability and pricing of their first Android 3.0 tablet challenger in the US. To be launched in April 24th for only $449.99 without contracts. Amazed? Well it's the WiFi-only version of the tablet which will be sold exclusively by Best Buy on the said date. Also, it will be available online.




For $449.99 you will be getting the specs listed below. Although the tablet will not be as thin as the iPad 2 or the new Galaxy Tabs it sure packs those features which, I believe, is deserving with it's tag price.

  • Android 3.0 Honeycomb
  • 1GHz nVidia Tegra 2 dual-core processor
