For those waiting for a fancy 7″ Android tablet you can fit in your jeans pocket to finally come with Android 3.0 (or 3.2) Honeycomb it appears the Acer Iconia A100 will finally be hitting the streets come August. The 7″ Honeycomb slate was announced in February but quickly delayed due to Honeycomb incompatibility.
Android 3.2 Honeycomb SDK was recently released bringing support to the 7″ form factor as well as other needed changes, this was the initial cause for delay so when it lands in August it should have extra honey drizzled on top with Android 3.2 Honeycomb on board. I’m excited to see the 7″ tablet form start to really hit the market as the portability is great.
We spotted the Acer A100 pricing at Walmart for $349 even though its yet to even be released. These early reported pricings are not confirmed and the latest details from our release date source also claim it will come to market at a much more competitive price point — It should launch for only $300 for the 16GB variant and $349 for the 32GB. We will be sure to keep you posted as the details start to flood in.
