Acer Iconia 484G64ns dual-display touchscreen PC reaches Philippine shores

Last Thursday, Acer Philippines introduced the Iconia line of touchscreen devices. This makes the country one of the first few territories to grab a hold of the latest Acer products.

Leading the pack is the Acer Iconia, which stands out with its dual 14-inch multitouch, high-definition 1,366 x 768-pixel LED backlit TFT LCD screens.

Below is a video featuring the Iconia (courtesy of Acer Philippines).



These screens support up to 10-finger touch.

Made of tempered glass (Corning Gorilla glass), these LCDs are quite thin but are capable of surviving rugged environments and rough modes of usage.

Acer Aspire One D260: One more reason for sticking with netbooks

The wife and I were looking for a portable and reasonably powerful computing platform that she could bring with her back to the U.S. Of course, wiser counsel would have told us she could save some money by buying her next notebook there. But, she said, she wanted to be able to communicate with us, her family in Manila, right from the very moment she would enter the airport premises.

My wife's first choice, the purple D260. Tough luck, the store was out of stock.

She also wanted the following: it should be portable and light enough to bring wherever her job as a social worker would take her, but powerful enough to perform the usual computing tasks she does with her desktop PC.
