Acer clarifies its position on the possible entry in the segment of slate or tablet PC. The president of Taiwan says it will stake everything on a netbook, ultraportable SmartBook and leaving the segment of the tablet to others. For now!

The arrival of Apple iPad has forced other manufacturers to quickly enter the new segment of slate or tablet PC. Asus, in fact, has recently announced the launch this year of its Eee Pad, MSI would also sell several models of tablet and HP is currently working on his slate, presented at CES 2010. As for Acer, the Taiwanese company stresses they are neither interested nor willing to invest in the new market category.

According to the latest statements by the President of Acer, Scott Lin, the Taiwanese company has chosen to focus on netbooks and other ultra-portable, a market far richer in possibilities and offers about where Acer has an advantageous position, being one of the leading companies for volumes disposed. Again according to Scott Lin, launched the tablet does not involve technical difficulties related to hardware, but you need to innovate and revolutionize the fight against the competition from Apple.

Simply trying to play a low-cost model developed by Apple with its AppStore, is an enterprise doomed to failure. Consequently, we should not expect any Acer tablet least in the coming months.
