With its innovative new sliding display mechanism, this convertible tablet feels very much like a slate when you want it to!”

Acer TravelMate C312XCi Tablet PC

Techworld.com writes a short review on the Acer TravelMate C312XMi Tablet PC. Their verdict is that “We’re not convinced that the tablet PC is going to catch on in a big way, no matter how many times it gets a makeover, but Acer’s offering compares favourably with most. It has plenty of good features, even if the price tag is a touch on the high side. Well done, Acer.”

2nd Acer AL1916W Review

Acer AL1916W Monitor

A poster at the Widescreen Gaming Forum writes a pretty informative review on the Acer AL1916W Monitor. He states that “As a conclusion I think it’s a good value and I recommend this monitor if you can live with the tradeoffs. If you can’t wait to get a widescreen monitor but can’t spend the extra $$ for pricier monitors, get this one it’ll serve you well. When larger panel prices drop again sell it and get a 24″. A big plus is that it’s easy on the graphic card with the lower resolution (1440×900) so you don’t have to upgrade your older / cheaper GPU for a 7800GTX in order to get widescreen support. ”

Acer TravelMate C312XCi Tablet PC

TrustedReviews reviews the Acer TravelMate C312XMi Tablet PC. Their bottom line is that “The Acer TravelMate C312XMi is a decent laptop that offers the advantage of being a tablet PC, but at a price premium. However, for a Tablet PC it’s on the heavy side and the screen resolution is a generation behind.”

Acer TravelMate C314XMi Review

Acer TravelMate C314XMi Tablet PC

TabletPCReviewSpot reviews the Acer TravelMate C314XMi Tablet PC. They conclude that “The Acer C314 is an excellent full-featured Tablet PC that is powerful enough to function as a desktop replacement. The generous 1024MB of RAM, 100GB hard drive, Built-in Bluetooth and fast 2.0GHz processor are a good value for the price. This machine is great for students or consumers who want a Tablet to be their “only” PC. Although there is value in the features that are included, it is obvious that Acer has cut back in their technical support. I would not recommend this model to any first-time computer user who might need to talk to a reliable tech support representative without having to wait for 20 minutes on hold.”
