AspireRevo Officially in U.S, at Newegg

The Acer AspireRevo is officially on sale in the U.S,  available at Newegg.com for $200. Interestingly to note that it is using the NVIDIA ION LE instead of the usually ION.

Netbooked also mentions its the one model currently available and is only using the single core Atom 230 processor (1.6GHz), 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD, ION LE graphics, Gigabit LAN and Windows XP Home. Also note that it does not come with the wireless keyboard and mouse, instead it comes with a wired keyboard and mouse.

My advise would probably to wait it out, until they have the full ION and dual-core specifications available.

Now at Newegg.com. Single-Core, ION LE and Wired Keyboard/Mouse

Revo expected in U.S this fall!

Getting to the point, "industry" sources expect the Acer AspireRevo (Dual-Core) edition will be released in the U.S this coming fall. So look at a September to November time-frame for the AspireRevo.

It not official, but my source is quite reliable!

Revo ranked #1, In-stock at NCIXUS

At NCIXUS the Acer AspireRevo with the Atom 330 (Dual-Core) is currently ranked at #1 out of the top ten most popular desktops. I find that quite impressive, considering its up "against" other Atom desktops and Quad core systems.

AspireRevo ranked #1 at NCIXUS

Even better is that the AspireRevo Atom 330 is in-stock and available for purchase in Canada and the United States...and it beats Ebay.com or Amazon.com (used version that is) at only $355.

Thinking about getting one?!

Acer AspireRevo with Dual-Core Atom, Available in the U.S!

Acer has finally decided to add Intel's dual-core Atom 330 to the AspireRevo 3600 series. The Revo will be practically the same as the previous models with NVidia ION graphics except that is will be be dual-core with the Atom 330 instead of the single-core Atom 230 - which many of us will agree does not cut it for the Revo.

There is not yet any information about official pricing or release details, although NCIXUS USA shows the Atom 330 model for $370...in the USA, which will get you the Revo with Atom 330, 2Gb of Ram, Vista Home Premium and a 160GB hard drive.

Anyone extremely happy by this news?!

Pricing, Release Details and Specs

While there is not yet official news about Acer's release date in the U.S, there has been a lot of talk about the release date in the U.K. First it was Play.com which said May 15th and now Pocket-Lint has released some details that the AspireRevo will reach shops May 5th.

Acer told Pocket-Link that the base package would have a Linux (Ubuntu) version with 1GB of RAM and 8GB solid-state-drive for £149.99, equivalent to $220 U.S dollars. Windows Vista will be packaged with 2GB of RAM and a 160GB Hard Drive and will go for £249.99, $367 U.S dollars.

NVidia Ion in Action

NVidia's forthcoming Ion graphics processors, first of which to be used in the Acer AspireRevo nettop coming May, are advertised as "Small Size. Big Performance." Many people are still unsure about the Ion's performance and power, or do not even know what the Ion processor is...so NVidia has put together a little video demontration. NVidia's Ion GPU is fitted with the GeForce 9400 making moderate gaming and HD streaming possible with the Intel Atom processor.

For more information about the Ion, visit NVidia.com or the Forums.

First AspireRevo Unboxing

Engadget.com has received a sample model of the AspireRevo from Acer and has given a short summary about their unboxing. Paul Miller says that  the AspireRevo is "already obviously the fastest Atom-powered device we've played with..." They also mention that it does have some performance issues, specifically with playing Hulu, but that might just be their "Engineering Sample".

The AspireRevo's appearance is very sleek and attractive to the eye. It has a short-lined pattern on it with a black tone finish. The power adapter appears to be the same size as a regular netbook ac adapter. All in all the Engadget team sees a lot of potential and performance in the Acer AspireRevo.

Pictures from the Unboxing have also been added to our AspireRevo Gallery!
