Acer's New Iconia A700 Tablet Up for Preorder on Their Website; Shows Out of Stock

[dgstorm]

Just yesterday we announced the new Acer Iconia A700 high-end tablet that is striving to be a true iPad competitor. We don't know for sure when the new supertab will be available, but it is up for pre-order as of today. You can head over to Acer's website at the source link below to setup a pre-order for just $449.99. Of course, it shows that the tablet is "Out of Stock," but that could simply be because it hasn't shipped to warehouses yet. This powerhouse quad-core behemoth is the first Android tablet with a true 1920 x 1200 HD display, and we can't wait to check it out. What do you guys think?

I pre-ordered a black A700 yesterday and there was an immediate hold on my credit card against the full price. Today the hold disappeared, but there is a new charge for the same amount.

So unless Acer is planning to do a new hold every day (that would suck), it should be soon.

Sweet! Thanks for the info bradhaak!
