Acer Aspire 1820PTZ
$800.00
Released January, 2010
The Pros:Convertible multi-touch tablet. 8-hour battery life. Compact form factor - 11.6" screen size.
The Cons:All plastic build. Doing any drive or memory upgrades voids your warranty (destroys warranty sticker). Not so lightweight at 3.8 pounds.

The screen can be folded over so that it can be used like a notebook to take notes, navigate maps or even read ebooks. It has a built in accelerometer that automatically rotates images based on which way the laptop is being held. The tablet can also be used for video calls as it has a built in Acer Crystal Eye webcam, video quality enhancement and a built in mic. The multi-touch screen also includes a multi-gesture touchpad which can be used to rotate images, drag and drop, zoom and browse without any need for a mouse or other external device. The battery lasts eight hours without need for another recharge because of the low voltage processor options and power saving configurations.
