I would choose the A200 which has the better screen and built quality I think and the biggest advantage for me would be its full USB slot for connecting normal keyboards, mice, ISB flash drives etc. It is the newer product in general, but there may be the one point for the Xoom: branded as a Google Experience device it looks as the Xoom Wifi gets updates a little earlier. But both tablets will get ICS at least (the Xoom pretty much already has it, the A200 will get it relatively soon).
i would choose acer iconia a200

There is no generic "Android Tablet" forum section, so I am posting this here.
Should I go with the Archos G9 10 Turbo ISC 16GB for $380 or Asus Transformer Prime TF201 32GB (not TF101) for $500. This is my first tablet purchase, but I have been using multiple Android phones (HTC, Motorola, Samsung) with custom ROMs for years now.
Both of them appear to have an active custom ROM development community...
Archos: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1414
Asus: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1417
I almost wish one of them didn't since that would make my choice easy as a custom ROM community base is a must! So, I really do not want to pay nearly $150 more for the Asus if the benefits are not there, but I have never used either, and they are completely out of stock in stores local to my area, so I cannot go use them and decide.
Here are my requirements (why I settled on these two models)
Must be at least 1GHz and dual-core
Must have at least 16GB internal memory
Must run ICS natively (or be upgradable to ICS and run it well)
Must have a custom ROM development community base on XDA
Thanks for the input!
Ok so I just bought an Acer a200 Iconia Tablet because I wanted to see what they're all about...while I'm not amazed and now know it's only a larger smartphone minus the actual phone I think they're kinda cool when you don't wanna grab the heavier laptop and all that mess with the battery running out so fast...
So here's my question-
if you had to choose between the Acer a200 Iconia, the Samsung Tablet 2 and the Asus Transformer tf300 which one would you choose??
Like I said...I already bought the Acer a200 but I've been reading in the Acer Forums and in alot of reviews that the Acer a200 goes dead for no reason...not all of them but quite a few had it happen...
it seems that after an OTA update when charging (or once the battery gets too low) while turned off it sometimes doesn't turn back on.
Now the Acer a200 I bought a few days ago is really nice for the price...full root & bootloader unlock is available and the ROMs are beginning to be made while the others only have root & bootloader unlock available so far...all three are pretty new.
I haven't had any issues at all with the Acer a200 but knowing my luck, once the 30-day return window runs out my tablet will die and I'll have to deal with shipping back to Acer and going through all the BS I'd rather avoid.
Here are the 3 tablets for you to check out...
Acer a200 Iconia
Asus TF300
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2
I would go on the Asus one.

I am also deciding between the Samsung tab and the Asus TF300.
Right now I am leaning towards Asus because of it has a better CPU and that it can "transform".
Title says it all, should I wait for the A110 or go for the Nex7?
what I know so far:
Nex7 has the better screen
Iconia A110 has expandable storage/Micro HDMI out
I'm a big fan of the Acer tablets ever since I picked up the A500, but my impatience is starting to get the better of me
Side-Question: Is getting USB-OTG going on the Nexus as easy as it seems? Because that may just be the tiebreaker, integrating a thumbdrive into a case for more storage
EDIT: crap I posted this in the wrong section didn't I?
Nexus 7, it's better!
Greetings!
I have an HP Touchpad 32gb, and I have been offered to trade it in for an Acer Iconia A500 32gb tablet (plus the dock and remote).
Not really sure if I should or not, what do you think? Is this more powerful than the HP Touchpad? How well
does this run with AOKP M6 and perhaps overclocked CPU?

Hello,
I was about to buy this tablet:
Ainol Novo 10 Hero 2
http://www.pandawill.com/ainol-novo...-screen-101-inch-16gb-dual-camera-p70835.html
But I found this one:
Acer Iconia A1-810
Is really the Acer better?
I heard a lot about it, found the problem with its speakers (very low), you can't root it (some people tried but I read that they didn't succeed) and apps can't be moved to SD card.............
I don't know much about rooting (I haven't used any android device yet) but I think it's important
Does it have other problems? I don't want to regret buying it...
What do you recommend for me?
Note: About the specs of both devices, I don't have a problem
I'm asking about the software part (lags, developers' custom ROMS, etc....)

The Acer A1-810 is a great tablet - nice size, quad-core performance, the screen is acceptable and it's priced similar to the so-called "value" Chinese tablets on eBay. After owning an Ainol tablet myself, the Acer A1-810 felt like I was moving to a proper, real Android tablet. Build quality and reliability becomes immediately apparent.
Having said that, you want have much success with rooting and loading any custom ROMs. Acer won't unlock the bootloader and the MediaTek SoC chipset is well and truly locked down.
And now, 9 months later, Acer have released the A1-830 - almost the same specs including the screen, but with an Intel chipset I think. However it's still on Jellybean 4.2, which amazes me (where's KitKat?!)
So I expect I will be stuck with Jellybean 4.2.2 for the life of my A1-810 tablet. Which is okay if you're happy to just use the tablet for what it can do: consume media content, play games, surf the net, social media. It does all of this really well.
But as for any software upgrades? Looks like it ain't gonna happen.
