I'm considering buying one of these....

[AmEv]

The Acer Iconia W500 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834215081).


What I've noticed so far about it:
Comes with Windows 7 (compared to Android or iOS, already an up)
USB keyboard dock (reviews say tablet tends to make it top-heavy, but I think I can fix that) (and, yes, KEYBOARD!)
Dual webcams (semi-clunky drivers for some ...... But definitely a plus)
Bluetooth (not that I use it that much, but a bonus)
BGN WiFi (cool!)
32GB SSD (OK, Win7 takes up ~1/2 of the space, but it can be trimmed down or have Linux installed)
SD Card slot (double storage, anyone?)
2xUSB (Tablet? With USB? AWESOME!)
Seen them as low as $400 NEW. (compared to iPad, whoa!)

Looking at this, I'd say it could be a fair cometitor of all the other tablets.


What do you all think?

2GB RAM and a 1Ghz Proc. Looks pretty good if you can get it less than $700

[AmEv]

Yes, I can't wait to see how it's priced Black Friday/Cyber Monday/End-of-Year Closeout.

If I buy this, what would you like in the review I do?

it's definitely a cool piece of gear, but i still don't trust acer to make anything too reliable yet.

[AmEv]

Not exactly what I meant, Twigs.

[Fuganater]

There are benchmark apps out there. Get some of them and take some videos too of things like loading AB and other games.

We'll see from here.
