下午在梅加购物中心SM网络中心逛了一圈，发现Acer的新Jellybean平板电脑。这可能是Acer Iconia B1 Jellybean平板电脑，原价在美国仅为$99，但后来Acer在2013年CES期间将价格调整为$150。

我们认为这只是同类进口产品，而不是Acer在该国的官方发布，因此价格存在差异。

The Jellybean tablet has a 7-inch display (1024x600 pixels), Mediatek 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 512MB RAM, 8GB internal storage, up to 32Gb via microSD card, WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS.

We only spotted this in one store and only about 2 units were available. The Iconia B1 is supposed to be Acer's answer to the affordable Nexus 7 (selling at Php13,995). At Php12k, it doesn't seem that attractive but if they follow the $150 price tag (under Php6,200) then that's another story altogether.

512MB lang ang RAM, 8GB lang ang internal storage, then according to this site: http://www.techradar.com/news/mobile-computing/tablets/acer-iconia-launched-as-7-inch-super-cheap-tablet-1121208 2710mAh lang ang battery, tapos Php13,995? Okay rin ang Acer ano? Kung makaka denggoy nga naman, why not?
