Acer's big guns: 10", 7" and dual-screen tablets



Acer's 10-inch Windows 7 tablet, coming February 2011, will run on a next-gen AMD processor. 
Wi-Fi and 3G will both be available, and twin front and rear-facing 1.3-megapixel cameras will 
take care of any chat/snapshot needs.


The Windows Tablet comes with its own docking keyboard, transforming it into a mini-workstation.

In addition to a Windows model, Acer will also be offering Android tablet models, 
like the one shown here.


The Android tablets will debut later--April 2011--and will run off 
Nvidia's Tegra 2 dual-core processors.



Both Windows and Android tablets will be compatible with Acer's also-announced 
Clear-Fi network, which will share content wirelessly in a home environment.




Unlike the iPad, Acer's Android Tablets will offer dual cameras: a 5 megapixel 
rear camera, and a front-facing one for video conferencing.





The 7-inch version of the Android Tablet will sport a 1280x800 dual screen with a 
16:10 wide-screen aspect ratio.


Prefer to touch type? The Iconia has a full touch-screen keyboard.


Iconia is, at its heart, a Core i5 laptop with familiar specs: up to 4GB of DDR3 RAM, 
integrated Intel graphics, a hard drive up to 750GB, and Windows 7 Home Premium. 
Ports are also typical for a high-end laptop: 2 USB 2.0, 1 USB 3.0, HDMI and VGA.
