“With the Iconia W3, Acer is giving those who create, read, work and play in the Windows environment a device they can hold in one hand that does it all,” said Michael Birkin, Acer Chief Marketing Officer. “With the combination of Windows 8 and a sleek 8-inch design, the W3 is a joy to use and a better way to have fun and productivity on the go.”
The Iconia W3 is powered by Intel’s Atom Z270 processor and comes with 2-megapixel front and rear-facing speakers. Starting at $379, the 8-inch Windows 8 slate will be available for presale beginning June 4 via retailers such as Amazon, Office Depot, Microsoft Retailers, MicrosoftStore.com, OfficeMax, Staples and Walmart.
