I envy Engadget for being able to hands on all the new gadgets in town. However, this time I wasn't too far behind trying out the new Acer Iconia tablet W500 which runs on Win7 and comes with an optional keyboard dock!
Last month, I reviewed the Acer A500, http://jllovegadgets.blogspot.com/2011/03/review-honeycomb-android-30-on-acer.html. Now it made sense.. A500 = Android, W500 = Windows. Oh? you knew it all along? Okie... I must have missed the memo.
My summary of the unit and the complete specs + pictures after the jump.
A quick review of Honeycomb (Android 3.0) on the new Acer A500 which is launching next month.
My first impression was : WOW, this UI is made for tablets! It is clean and large. Menu was on screen and the locations and labels are not very alien to Android users. However, it is a total different UI to Android 1.x or 2.x.
Read more about it after the jump. Lot of pictures, but pardon the quality; taken using my SGS phone camera.
