AcerIconia has shown its unique tablet-notebook icon at a press conference today in the world, and at first glance, it seems a bit amazing kit. Dual 14-inch touch screen and built-in personal gesture of support, image certainly stands out from the crowd.
Acer is a tablet bearing Iconia convertible, with a wallpaper that can function as a virtual keyboard, it is a function both as a tablet and a laptop. The two multi-touch screens are 1280 x 800 resolution and the device is able to support 720p HD playback.
Although the twin screens are clearly the biggest draw card with this device, it also comes with AMD dual-core, and a good amount of links. Ratio, the Acer image with an HDMI port, two USB 2.0 ports, USB 3.0, WiFi, 1.3 MP camera and a pair. It seems that the memory and hard disk is customizable, including the 750GB HDD and 4 GB of RAM.
It is not all good news for the Iconia however, with a small battery life and a heavy build at 6.2 pounds. Acer has unveiled a new “concept device” that they think represents the future of laptopping. The guts are respectable, but nothing crazy: Core i5, integrated graphics, 4GB of DDR3, a 2.5″ HDD, 3G, and a USB 3.0 port. They’ve got a few concept touch apps, including a journal and a scrapbook, and a social stream. The “Acer Ring” and gesture editor demonstrate the power of a touchscreen, namely natural gestures like “grabbing” the screen or putting your palms on it, and I’m glad to see that being advanced. The trouble is, this thing runs Windows 7, and Windows 7 just isn’t that touch-friendly. Engadget notes that the keyboard is hard to use, which I would have expected. Close your eyes, take your fingers all off the keyboard, and try hitting P. Now do the same with your fingers resting on the home row. It’s automatic.
Acer offers some interesting ideas on the table here, but in future it is not.

There is a nice info about Windows Phone 7 smartphones went on sale today at AT&T and T-Mobile retailers in the U.S., although customers are not exactly breaking down doors to buy them in the early going.
Analysts said they expect WP7 sales to build slowly as the holidays approach, especially with a record $500 million TV advertising campaign for the devices.
Neither carrier responded to a request for comment on WP7 sales midday Monday. However, one sales representative for the AT&T store in Framingham, Mass., said a reporter's phone call at about noon today was the first inquiry about WP7 phones at all.
Verizon Wireless, the largest U.S. wireless carrier, expects to sell WP7 phones next year, a spokeswoman confirmed.
Analysts said they don't expect WP7 phone sales to ever have the major buzz that accompanies iPhone first-day sales, where hundreds of buyers line up outside of major Apple stores.
Analyst Jack Gold of J.Gold Associates said it will be interesting to watch reaction to WP7 sales. Microsoft marked the first day of sales with a Windows Phone developer blog update by Todd Brix, senior director of Windows Phone Marketplace. Brix said WP7 customers will have access to nearly 2,000 apps and games in the marketplace, double the 1,000-apps goal that Microsoft set in early October.
So far, sales figures for the first batch of Windows Phone 7 smartphones from AT&T and T-Mobile have been scarce, though numbers could start leaking out over the weekend or by Monday.
Apple has typically set the bar for strong launches, with 250,000 units sold the first weekend when the first iPhone went on sale in July 2007; 1.6 million iPhone 3GS units were sold in its first week in June 2009.
With multiple Windows Phone 7 launches this week, it's hard to make an apples-to-apples comparison with other smartphone debuts.
If not, expect the company to remain coy, making general statements about being "pleased" with results and a strong demand for its new phones.

Her past jobs are writing assistant at Immaculata University, Athletic Department assistant/statistician at Immaculata University and intern at NFL Films.

Top critics new Julia RobertEat Pray Lovemovie mixed reviews. Columbia pictures released their new Julia Roberts branded comedy/drama flick "Eat Pray Love" into theaters today, and the top critics gave it some pretty mixed reviews with a couple Bs, Cs and Ds.
The movie starts : Julia Robert, James Franco, Javier Bardem, Viola Davis, Billy Crudup and Richard Jenkins.
Roger Ebert at the Chicago Sun-Times gave it a C. He stated, "shameless wish fulfillment, a Harlequin novel crossed with a mystic travelogue"
James Berardinelli at Reelviews gave it a D + rating "Eat Pray Love" movie is in theaters.
Even with all that lush scenery and those though-provoking lessons, the film (directed by Ryan Murphy and based on Elizabeth Gilbert's best selling memoir and book-cirrcle staple) is tripped up by its own habit of lingering too long...on individual scenes, on individual points, on Roberts' character's seemingly limitless well of self-pity, and on delivering its final message "I don't know how to be here," Roberts'Liz whines to Franco.
Liz goes to Italy, then India, then Bali (Indonesia),in each locale learning personal lessons relating to one of the three title verbs. In Rome, she befriends a nice Swedish girl (Tuva Novotny) and a handsome young Italian tutor (Luca Argentero), learning the language while eating a lot of pasta. Her epiphany is to not care so much about wheather she gains a few pounds, but to simply enjoy the food.
It's there that, after its plodding and self-aggranding start, Murphy's film finally loosens up and shows signs of life. Lessons learned and new friends made, when she next to India ("Pray"), where she works to find her spiritual balance and fugure out how to forgive herself for hurting the people she loved. Again, the loving visuals impart great color to the whole affair, but the real treat is Richard Jenkis, as a brash and wise Texan on his search for redemption.
Although some are more profound than others, there are a lot of worthwhile life lessons in Murphy's movie.
