Acer unveiled its latest step towards its aggressive low-cost, high-power strategy at Computex: the Iconia Tab A110. The 7-inch tablet features 1024 x 600 display resolution, a front-facing camera, and Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). The gadget is powered by 1GB of RAM and the NVIDIA Tegra 3, a system-in-a-chip that combines a 1.4GHz quad-core CPU, a ULP GeForce GPU, a northbridge and southbridge, and as good as 1500MHz DDR3-L memory technology. These features come together to produce a mobile device that is significantly more powerful than the Kindle Fire, yet available for less than $200.
Additional features include a micro SD card slot, a USB 2.0 port, and HDMI connectivity, allowing for flexibility of use and interaction with other devices. The built-in storage capacity of the tablet is only 8GB, although this is easily expandable with external storage devices. Acer expects the Iconia Tab A110 to be released during the 3rd quarter of 2012.
