Move over iPad Mini, Nexus 7 and Galaxy Note 8.0— Acer is bringing a new player to the mini tablet arena. A mysterious Acer Iconia A1-810 has been revealed to the general public and looks to have the standard goodies including a 1.2GHz MediaTek dual-core chip, 7.9-inch IPS display with a 1,024 x 768 resolution + 1GB of RAM, a 5MP rear camera + a VGA front-facer, a 3,250 mAh battery and 16GB of on-board memory. Sure the competition may have some better specs inside, but at least the device will ship with Android 4.2 out of the gates.

As of now, it appears that French retailer Rue Du Commerce is the only place that is officially listing the device available for order at this point, though we'll see if other countries and markets will get the device as well. It is expected the Iconia A1-810 will cost about €199 (about $259) and ship sometime in June.

Yawn… I can buy a tablet with 1280×800 IPS display and quad core processor for $149! I used to really like Acer, but quick frankly they are missing the point. I would rather have the A100 or the A110. Come on Acer, people want a better display as they spend the whole time staring and interacting with it

  I think the tablet is most interesting for its 4:3 aspect ratio. I’d totally buy it just for that.
