Acer has been struggling with losses for several quarters in a row. Now with the PC market expected to decline further, Taiwan-based Acer is betting big on Android-based tablet devices to churn healthy margin of profits.

 

Acer today launched two new tablets- the Wi-Fi only Iconia Tab 7 and the 3G-enabled Iconia One 7. Both devices are expected to go on sale in May. The launch event already took place in New York on Tuesday.

 

Acer has announced that the Acer Iconia One 7 will be made available in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) by mid-May at a price point of EUR 139 (about Rs. 11,600 ), while the tablet will go in sale in the U.S by the end of June at $129.99 (about Rs. 7,850).
