Acer Iconia Tab A500

     I can leave talking about Tabs/Slates alone, they are just to interesting.  I was surfing around cnet.com and came across the Acer Iconia Tab A500.  I'm not a big fan of Acer because it is not a well known product to me but this new slate seems rather impress.  Like all the new Slates that are coming out (besides the Ipad 2), it is running the new Android 3.0 Honeycomb.  It also has the NIVIDIA Tegra 2 dual-core processor and using a low powered NVIDIA GeForce GPU for your gaming experience.  You already know that it comes with HDMI ports and supports Flash 10.1.  It is just as great as the Xoom but there is one great thing about the Iconia that it has over most of the competition, the price.  Cnet is pricing it around $450; that is easier on the pocket if you want a good Slate without paying great Slate prices.  I believe with this new Slate on the market, Acer could make me fork over some money to buy into their unfamiliar bran.
