Acer Android 7-inch and 10.1-inch Tablets Preview Videos Spotted





Acer announced its new 7-inch and 10.1-inch Tablets in an New York based event last month on Nov 23. Out of both, videos of the 10.1-inch Acer Tablet running Android was spotted on YouTube. Two different videos showed preview of the same thing - usage of gyroscope to flip through pages of magazine or a book. The tablet seems to have Acer UI 4.5 layered over the Android interface and also showed some innovative zooming gestures.

At the Acer's Conference, the 10.1-inch Android running tablet was shown with aluminum casing and one of the slides mentioned that the tablet would house a dual-core 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets. The capacitive touchscreen supports 1280x800 pixel resolution display. In the videos, a female previews Acer's Android tablet running an eBook application that flips pages based on the gyroscope. The interface is bit buggy. Watch the videos below:

Free 320Gb Hard Disk With Acer Aspire Laptop

Hey If you're planning to buy an Acer Laptop , then you are in for a Christmas bonus. The company just announced an offer where their certain line of laptops will be bundled with a free 320GB portable hard disk. The conditions are - it's got to be a notebook pre-loaded with Windows 7 Home Basic and Home Premium and between the price range of Rs. 31,000 to Rs. 43,000. Acer notebooks falling under this range include the Aspire series which includes the Timeline X 4820T that we like. 

A 320GB portable hard drive is sold for roughly 2,600 in the market today. So that's a fairly decent discount.
