Abstract: The 'tablet wars' got intense yet again. Taiwanese electronics giant Acer seems to be taking the tablet business quite seriously. The company has launched its range of five tablets under its flagship brand name - Iconia. Catering to different tastes, the ...
The Acer Iconia A500 ended up being a bit of a mixed bag and as an overall experience, we were left wanting more. On paper, it appeared as if the A500 can do no wrong what with a Tegra 2 processor under the hood and 1GB of memory. It does deliver thoug...
