With Christmas looming perilously close, the panic is already setting in for folks looking to buy their loved ones shiny new gadgets.
With laptops being on more than a few Santa lists, here’s three top choices, compiled from the esteemed folks at What Laptop Tablet & Smartphone.
It seems that the iPad’s near-total dominance of the tablet market is fading fast, with a new report showing that sales of Android slates soared in the last quarter at the expense of Apple.
Hewlett-Packard has hung on to its #1 on the planet ranking, increasing its share of the PC global market to 17.7 per cent in the third quarter of 2011, according to the number-crunching bods at Gartner.
Just arrived on Amazon is Acer’s new Aspire ICONIA TAB A100 7 inch tablet, a fully spec’d dual core Android 3.0 Wi-Fi only tablet retailing for a very reasonable £299.
Acer is plunging into the Android world in a big way, announcing a stunning new smartphone/tablet hybrid as well as two new tablets.
They may not have got around to giving their upcoming high end handset a name yet, but Acer’s lovely looking new mobile packs some mouth-watering specs, including a mahoosive 1024×480 pixel resolution, 4.8-inch screen.
Acer’s new Stream Android smartphone is set to saunter into the UK this August, with a contract-free price of £399.99.
Acer has just ripped off its y-fronts and flashed their first e-reader device at the world.
If you’re not happy with your netbook and the keyboard-less lines of the tablet form aren’t exciting your wallet regions, then Acer are hoping that their tablet/netbook two-in-one hybrid will do the job for you.
Their new Aspire Timeline 1825PT can perform as a regular netbook with a proper QWERTY keypad and touchpad, but with a deft swivel of the 11.6 inch 1366 x 768 HD screen you’re holding a tablet (albeit a rather tubby one). Magic!
Road warriors looking to slap out a slab o’style on their travels should perhaps take a peek at Acer’s rather dandy premium Ethos range.
Their new 8943G packs a hefty 18.4-inch screen supporting a 1920 x 1080 resolution, with nothing less than true Dolby Home Theater 5.1 surround sound onboard, thanks to five miniature speakers and a sub lurking within its sleek lines.
Anyone looking for a stylish mini PC netbook at a super-cut down price, should swiftly cast their eyes in the direction of the Aspire Revo R3600.
Offered by e-Buyer, who are currently offering the Revo for a few pennies under £150, this looks tremendous value to our eyes.
A stylish, Linux-powered number small enough to fit on to the back of your monitor, the Revo is powered by an Intel Atom 230 CPU (the single-core version of dual core 330), running at 1.6GHz – perfect for a small home server or media centre.
