Acer’s Anger Rises to the Surface

Acer Chairman and CEO JT Wang has lashed out at Microsoft over the software giant’s plans to launch its own Surface tablets in October.

Microsoft should think twice before going forward with the tablet, as the move would be detrimental for the worldwide PC ecosystem, Wang said during an interview with the Financial Times.

Acer, which offers its own Iconia tablet, is one of Microsoft’s largest OEM partners.

Wang urged Microsoft to reconsider its move and warned that other brands may have a negative reaction to Redmond’s plans as well. He also asserted that Microsoft’s not good at creating hardware.

Microsoft’s move was apparently spurred in part by its OEMs’ reactions to the fast-growing tablet market on the one hand, and the screaming sales performance of iPads on the other.

“Most of the initial tablet designs from the OEMs didn’t appear competitive with the iPad, so Microsoft felt they had to step out and create a halo product or lose the market,” said Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group.

“The OEMs … are getting beaten up in the Android tablet market by content aggregators such as Apple and Amazon that released their own platforms,” Jim McGregor, founder and principal analyst at Tirias Research,, told the E-Commerce Times. “Microsoft is more worried about competing with Apple and Google than the overall impact [of its move] on the OEMs.”

Microsoft spokesperson Dani Reese referred all questions to Acer. Acer America spokesperson Lisa Emard referred questions to Acer corporate headquarters in Taiwan; that office did not respond to our request for further details.

Redmond acknowledged in its 10-K annual report filing for the fiscal year ending June 30 that its Surface tablet would compete with products from its OEM partners. this might affect their commitment to its platform, Microsoft stated.

Microsoft’s plan to make its own tablets isn’t the only thing riling its OEM partners. There’s also the fact that Microsoft will sell the Surface products directly without going through its regular distribution channels.

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer told CRN that partners who want to sell the Surface tablet have to buy it directly from Microsoft. Redmond plans to sell Surface tablets directly on the Web as well as at its brick-and-mortar stores.

Microsoft “is trying something unique in that they are moving the Surface tablets upmarket, creating a luxury line to compete with the iPad because none of their licensees have been able to, but that has clearly upset their ecosystem,” Enderle told the E-Commerce Times.

Perhaps OEMs have only themselves to blame for their problems because they “have been pushing resources away from the desktop for some time and so the market has largely stalled,” Enderle suggested.

For example, Dell has shifted most of its efforts to the mid-market and software, and HP has turned to growing its software and server business, both moving into areas “that are adjacent to or competing with Microsoft,” Enderle elaborated. Further, “virtually all” the OEMs have dabbled with Android, further upsetting Microsoft.

“Microsoft is seeking to reverse that without handing the market to Apple,” Enderle suggested.

That might be a tough row to hoe. Strategy Analytics reported that Apple had 68 percent of the worldwide market for tablets in Q2 2012. this was its highest level in nearly two years.

However, some potential buyers are eyeing Surface tablets, Strategy Analytics stated.

Microsoft is “really competing against Apple’s vertical integration model rather than against its OEMs,” Tirias’s McGregor said. “Using the OEMs is not the business model Microsoft is targeting with this move.”

The OEMs “need to find other ways to differentiate from the Microsoft tablet,” McGregor continued.

However, the only way to truly differentiate is to move up the value chain toward content and services, and this requires a completely different business model, McGregor said. “Unfortunately, this is a long-term trend that will eventually force some of the OEMs out of the business and may change the structure of the computing value chain forever.”

HP and Dell to launch Windows RT tablet PCs at the ...

HP and Dell to launch Windows RT tablet PCs at the end of October Monica Chen, Taipei; Joseph Tsai, DIGITIMES [Thursday 2 August 2012]

Hewlett-Packard (HP) and Dell are both set to launch Windows RT-based tablet PCs after the release of the new operating system. HP will adopt chip solutions from Texas Instruments (TI), while Dell will use chips from Qualcomm, according to sources from the upstream supply chain.

Asustek Computer and Toshiba have already unveiled their Windows RT tablet PC designs with the former to adopt Nvidia’s solution and later one from TI . Both plan to release their machines in the fourth quarter, while Acer does not have plans to release a Windows RT tablet PC in 2012.

Dell’s Windows RT tablet PC is outsourced to Compal Electronics for manufacturing.

Sources from notebook vendors also pointed out their new Intel/Windows 8 tablet PCs are mostly ready and that they did not encounter many issues over hardware/software compatibility, most of the vendors should launch their products after October 26.

Intel Not Porting Google’s Android for ...

Intel isn’t actively porting Android to work on tablets based on the upcoming Atom chip code-named Clover Trail, which is purpose built for Microsoft’s Windows 8, according to a source familiar with the company’s plans.

Initial tablets using Clover Trail will launch later this year, and will coincide with the release of Microsoft’s Windows 8, which is also expected later this year. Intel has said 20 Clover Trail tablet designs are in the works, and the companies launching tablets will include Acer.

Intel has worked closely with Microsoft to tune tablets with Clover Trail chips for Windows 8 OS, which has a touch user interface. A handful of Clover Trail tablets have been shown running Windows 8, but none have been shown running Android.

Intel is a big backer of Android, but the source did not disclose what direction the company would take on Android OS for tablets. A prototype tablet with another Intel Atom chip code-named Medfield has been shown running Android, and Vizio is expected to use the chip in an upcoming tablet with a 10-inch screen, which is also expected to have the Android OS.

The Medfield chip is also being used in smartphones from Lenovo, Lava International and Orange. Intel continues to work closely with Google to tune Android for Intel Inside smartphones, and Motorola Mobility, now a part of Google, will start selling x86 smartphones in the next few months.

Intel is placing big bets on Clover Trail and Windows 8 to grow in the tablet market, where it has a minimal presence. Microsoft has announced Windows RT for tablets with ARM processors, which dominate the tablet market. Intel’s first dedicated Atom chip for tablets, code-named Oak Trail, was launched last year and is being used in a few business tablets that run the Windows 7 OS.

Apple’s iPad rules the tablet market, and Microsoft’s Windows 8 is being seen as a big threat to Google’s Android OS. though successful in smartphones, Android has failed to break Apple’s dominance in tablets, tasting success only through a few tablets such as Google’s Nexus 7 and Amazon’s Kindle Fire.

Some major device makers such as Acer and Asus, which currently offer Android tablets, have also announced Windows 8 tablet-PC hybrids with Intel’s Ivy Bridge processors. An exception is Dell, which is putting its full weight behind Windows 8. Hewlett-Packard, which abandoned WebOS, said its next tablet will also be based on Windows 8. Lenovo has showed a ThinkPad tablet running on Windows 8.

Intel is keeping its OS options open for mobile devices. The chip maker has said it would evaluate Windows Phone OS for smartphones, and is actively supporting Tizen OS, which is being developed in collaboration with Samsung and other companies.

Acer Iconia Tab A700 Review – Watch ...

With the A700, Acer essentially took its Iconia Tab A510, slapped in a 1,920×1,200-pixel resolution screen and gave it a new name. unfortunately, Acer failed to compensate for the extra bandwidth a high-res screen requires. the result? Stuttery performance that periodically hangs or (in one case) freezes completely.

Acer made a good decision to go with a high-res display. It’s sharp and the benefits to text are unmistakable. It’s just too bad it seemingly only goes halfway in its efforts to implement it well.

DesignThe A700′s left and right edges are adorned with silver plating; the back feels like a mixture of rubber and leather (in a good way), making the tablet easy to grip; the corners are well-rounded, and much like the Nexus 7, it just feels comfortable to hold. in fact, it’s one of the most comfortable tablets I’ve ever had the pleasure of holding, with the leathery back (available in either silver or black) reducing the likelihood it’ll accidentally slip from my hands.

From a purely aesthetic standpoint, however, the A700 looks dull and sort of boxy compared with more elegantly made tablets like the Transformer Infinity.

The microSD slot (supporting up to 64GB cards) and micro HDMI are welcome inclusions.

(Credit:Josh Miller/CNET)

On the left edge sits the power/lock button and a headphone jack. on the opposite edge is a Micro-HDMI port and a door covering a 64GB-capacity microSD slot. in the middle of the bottom edge is a Micro-USB port next to a reset pinhole, with speakers on the far right and left sides. on the top edge, from left to right, lies a volume rocker, a rotation lock switch, and a microphone pinhole. A 1-megapixel front camera sits in the middle of the top bezel with an ambient light sensor to its left. Directly opposite the front camera, on the back, sits a 5-megapixel rear camera.

You may not be able to tell just by looking at it, but the A700 is ever so slightly thicker than the A510.

(Credit:Josh Miller/CNET)

Software featuresThe A700 comes preinstalled with Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich). Check out the Ice Cream Sandwich section of the Iconia Tab A200 review for detailed info on the improvements Android 4.0 makes over Honeycomb (Android 3.0). the A700 is the first tablet to ship with version 4.0.4 and while Google purportedly included improvements to screen rotation speed and smoothed out Web page zooming, I didn’t notice any difference compared with other tablets running 4.0.3.

With the A700, Acer includes a number of custom software features that those familiar with previous Acer tablets should recognize. Chief among them is Acer Ring. Ring is an app shortcut and carousel-like bookmark hub that appears after you tap the green ring symbol at the bottom of the screen. Each bookmark or app that appears is completely customizable, allowing you to include up to four apps and seemingly as many bookmarks as you like.

While this would seem useful, accessing apps the normal way is already so quick and easy that adding an extra step like tapping the ring puts you that much farther from your goal. to be fair, we’re talking about mere seconds here, but it does affect the overall experience. though overall, I feel its usefulness is limited, it can come in handy if you’re already in an app and want to quickly switch to another already in the carousel. If Ring holds no interest for you, a quick trip to the settings gives you the option to disable the feature.

The ability to directly access a tablet’s file system is never frowned upon.

(Credit:Eric Franklin/CNET)

Acer Print is a built-in setting that allows you to add printers either through your network or by bar code scan, and then print directly from the tablet. even more useful is Acer Files, which gives you direct access to the tablet’s file system through a simple and well-designed interface.

Clear.fi has been split into separate Photo, Video, and Music apps, but all still work to aggregate media on your network and stream media to and from the A700. the A700 also comes with a free Polaris Office app that fairly successfully approximates Microsoft Office, allowing users to create PowerPoint, Word, and Excel docs.

Hardware featuresThe A700 is Acer’s second tablet, after the A510, to house Nvidia’s quad-core processor, the Tegra 3. it includes a 1.3GHz version of the processor, compared to the 1.2GHz version found in the Asus Transformer TF300 and the 1.6GHz version found in the Transformer Infinity. For memory, the A700 includes 1GB of DDR2 RAM — as opposed to the faster DDR3 RAM the Infinity uses. the A700 also has 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi support, Bluetooth 2.1, a gyroscope, an accelerometer, and GPS. Only one 32GB-capacity configuration is currently available.

One of the few unique (or now, maybe not so unique, thanks to the Nexus 7) features of the A700 is its grippy back texture.

(Credit:Josh Miller/CNET)

PerformanceThe Acer Iconia Tab A700 is the first Android tablet to sport an 1,920×1,200 resolution screen. the Transformer Infinity’s screen has the same resolution, but that tablet doesn’t go on sale until mid-July. the A700 is available now. while the tablets share the same resolution, there is a disparity in the quality of each screen. the Infinity’s screen has a higher brightness (even without IPS+ mode enabled), wider viewing angles, more accurate and vibrant color, and the contrast just feels more dramatic and “poppy.”

PC Maker Acer: Microsoft’s Surface Will Fail

Just days after Microsoft unveiled a tablet computer buit to run the Redmond, Washington company’s software Monday, one of Microsoft’s PC industry partners trashed the effort

Microsoft needs to stick to software, Oliver Ahrens, senior VP and president for Europe, Middle East and Africa told Reuters Thursday. Taiwan-based Acer is the world’s fourth biggest PC maker, behind HP, Lenovo, and Dell.

“I don’t think it will be successful because you cannot be a hardware player with two products,” Ahrens reportedly said. “Microsoft is a component of a PC system. a very important component but still a component.”

“Instead of enhancing the user experience for Win 8 (…) they open a new battlefield,” Ahrens said.”I worry that this will lead into a defocus internally for Microsoft, and then we have to suffer because we are working with their products.”

The question now: if Surface is a hit, what can Acer – and other Microsoft customers – do about it?

Lack of features could hamper Nexus 7's ...

At US$199, Google’s Nexus 7 may seem like a tempting tablet, but some potential buyers and analysts say that it lacks hardware features and is a feeble attempt to energize the Android OS in a market dominated by Apple.

Google on Wednesday announced the Nexus 7, which is now available at the Google Play online store for $199 for a model with 8GB of storage and $249 for a 16GB model. The tablet, made in collaboration with Asus, has a 7-inch screen and Google’s latest Android 4.1 operating system code-named Jelly Bean.

Nexus 7 joins a crowded tablet market that includes the dominant iPad and a collection of devices based on the Android OS from Samsung, Lenovo, Asus, Acer and Toshiba. Analysts have said that Google is following Apple’s lead and introducing the Nexus 7 so Android OS can grow in tablets by bringing hardware, software and services closer. Google offers apps, music, books, and movies through the Google Play store, but analysts say that Nexus 7 is more a competitive threat to Amazon.com’s $199 Kindle fire tablet, which is based on Android and closely bundles services, entertainment and cloud offerings.

Calling Google’s announcement “out of character,” Richard Shim, senior analyst at NPD DisplaySearch, said Nexus 7 makes the search giant a competitor in the hardware space, which will continue as products roll out from Motorola Mobility, which Google acquired for $12.5 billion [B].

Google’s user base is not nearly as strong as Apple or Amazon, so it will take time to build a strong customer base, said Frank Gillett, an analyst at Forrester Research, in a research note sent via email.

“Google’s real tablet problem is the lack of compelling tablet-optimized apps and Google has yet to address how to motivate developers to fill the gap. Nor has Google addressed the continuing and growing fragmentation problem where few devices are updated to the current OS, because carriers and device makers don’t push out the new versions or users don’t take them,” Gillett wrote.

The Nexus 7 displays images at a 1280-by-800 pixel resolution, and the device is 10.16 millimeters thick and weighs 317 grams. Other features include a front-facing camera and connectivity options such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and NFC (near-field communication). The device offers battery life of up to nine hours on video playback and 300 hours of standby time.

The Nexus 7 design lacks storage and 3G/4G mobile broadband support, which makes it less useful, said Geoff Kratz, who runs technology consulting company FarWest Software in Calgary, Canada.

But he has placed an order for a Nexus 7 and plans to use it as a test platform. He already owns a 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab.

“The [Nexus 7] features, other than CPU and graphics processing, aren’t radically different from what you can get from Samsung, Sony or Apple. There’s nothing here that forces the main players to play ‘catch up’,” Kratz said by email.

Kratz thinks this could be a one-off device from Google, which doesn’t have a consistent history of maintaining hardware devices. He also wondered why Google had to partner with Asus to make the tablet, instead of making a product through Motorola Mobility unit, which sells tablets such as the Xoom.

“Google has this habit of releasing a device, and once it sells out, never selling another one,” Kratz said. “This one looks a bit like a one-off for them.”

Google Nexus is an intriguing move by Google into the tablet world, and it could bring a level of credibility to the Android tablet ecosystem after initial failures, said Vishal Sood, a technology enthusiast in Washington state. and while the price is good, he’s not yet been persuaded to buy the tablet.

“As an owner of iPad, I am not totally convinced to move to or buy an additional tablet,” Sood said.

Sood uses the iPad to watch video, read blogs on Flipboard and also while traveling. He has everything on the iPad, and feels the 7-inch form factor is too small for an application like Flipboard to be effective.

“Not sure how Android makes this any better,” Sood said.

Beyond the lack of RAM, the device also lacks an micro SD card slot, which limits storage, said Mark Damon Hughes, a developer in Seattle. He own iPads and iPhones and also a Hewlett-Packard TouchPad.

The Nexus 7 also does little to address the many concerns facing Android developers, including a lack of applications, content and ability to earn money from apps.

“There’s no money in the Google market, and ads bring in pennies per dollar invested. so there’s zero incentive for me to get it and waste valuable time developing for it,” Hughes said.

While users who were interviewed agreed that Nexus 7 will not unseat Apple’s iPad, they also noted that its hardware is better than Amazon.com’s $199 Kindle fire tablet. but Amazon.com’s main business is content and that is where it has an advantage over Google.

“Amazon doesn’t have any particular need to catch up to the Nexus, because all of their high-value content will work on the Nexus, and Amazon’s business isn’t hardware, it’s content. Amazon can sell the fire at a loss and a Nexus sale helps Amazon as much as a Kindle fire purchase,” FarWest’s Kratz said.

But considering the price is just $199, the Nexus 7 is attractive to some.

Ned Perkins, a student in Australia, is considering buying Nexus 7 in a couple of weeks, but the device won’t replace his iPad 2, which has iOS 6 beta.

The micro SD slot being nonexistent is disappointing, but he’s happy with the features in the tablet at the price, and likes the portability of a 7-inch tablet.

“I’m considering buying the 16GB model off the Play store in a couple of weeks as Jelly Bean appears quite smooth and I prefer to keep up with newer technology,” Perkins said by email.

Acer Iconia Tab A110 7-inch tablet unveiled, to ...

Amazon’s Kindle fire broke every tablet price barrier we knew last year, when it hit the market, and many technology enthusiasts at that time predicted the advent of affordable and reliable Android-based slates.

Unfortunately, that didn’t happen and we’re still waiting for Amazon to come up with their second-gen Kindle Fires and for Google to out that much awaited Nexus Tablet. before seeing these, however, you should take a look at Acer’s new Iconia Tab A110 7-incher, a gadget that looks almost too good for its price.

Unveiled at Computex Taipei without much glitter, the A110 is a redesigned and rehashed version of the A100 set to only cost around $200. Packing a snappy quad-core NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor under its hood, the new Iconia Tab A110 doesn’t have a release date just yet, but hopefully Acer will make this available before the outing of the Nexus Tablet.

The 7-incher’s design might not be the most original or innovative, but the matte, scratch-resistant and finger print-resistant back is a very nice touch. Measuring 11.4 mm (0.44 inches) in thickness, the A110 is a bit on the bulky side, but looks robust enough to take a hit or two.

Aside from the quad-core processor, Acer’s new 7-incher will come with 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of on-board memory, a 1024 x 600 pixels resolution display, a microSD card slot, HDMI, and a front-facing camera. There’s no rear-facing shooter, but the rest of the specs are pretty darn impressive and beat Amazon’s Kindle fire by a mile.

In fact, the guys at the Verge, who’ve spent a few minutes alone with the tablet, have put it to a very quick Quadrant test. the results have been more than satisfying, with the A110 being slightly slower than the Asus Transformer Prime, but significantly snappier than Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 10.1, both of these tablets being more expensive than what Acer is planning to charge for the 7-incher.

The A110 is also set to run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich out of the box with very few customizations and UI tweaks, which should be a blessing for anyone looking for the best and “purest” software.

Aside from the A110, Acer is also planning the release of a new 10-inch tablet, going by the name of Iconia Tab A210. the big guy will be sporting a 1280 x 800 pixels resolution display and will also come packing an NVIDIA Tegra 3 chipset.

The rest of the features include 1 GB of RAM, 8 or 16 GB of internal memory, a 3,620 mAh battery, the running of Android ICS, a USB 2.0 port, a microSD card slot, a front-facing camera, and optional 3G connectivity. There’s no rear-facing shooter here as well, so chances are the A210 will also come at a decent price for its specs (hopefully under $300).

Are you intrigued by Acer’s new Android tablet duo? will you be looking to purchase either of the two gadgets when they start selling? let us know below!
