Acer Iconia-484G64ns Dual-Touch Laptop In The Philippines

Acer Philippines has just announced the release of the Acer Iconia dual-touchscreen notebook announced as part of the company’s response to the ever increasing worldwide tablet demand. The twin 14-inch touchscreen clamshell will be priced at around PHP70,000 including VAT.

That amount of cash will get you a Core i5 processor paired with up to 4GB of RAM and up to 750GB of HDD storage. There’s also optional 3G, USB 3.0, VGA and HDMI connectivity, together with audio in/out and Wi-Fi.

This powerful device will be pre-installed with Windows 7, but Acer has done some extra work fettling the Iconia for dual-display use; there’s a multi-touch keyboard, for instance,which is automatically loaded when you place all ten fingertips on the bottom display. A circular shortcut menu and various gesture-based controls have also been loaded.
