OK, so no actual Acer Iconia Tab A100 was actually spotted at Walmart, but a price tag and description should suffice, no? The Iconia Tab A100’s launch was delayed supposedly to further tweak its Android 3.0 Honeycomb operating system for the tablet’s 7-inch display, but without so much as a peep from the company is the slate ready to hit shelves? The tablet recently passed through the FCC, a quick pit stop along the way to store shelves where good ol’ Walmart will have the thing for $349. No accompanying listing on the retailer’s website has us questioning if the Iconia Tab A100 is really here, but that won’t stop us from being excited at the prospect.

WOW!, WHAT A GREAT PRICE. /stapes
This has my attention. Same price as the Galaxy Tab wifi but with Honeycomb, something the Tab might not get!
This tablet would be a no-brainer for fans of the 7″ form factor…
… but a 1530 mAh battery powering a 7″ screen? Seriously? What a terrible decision. Watching a streaming video over wifi with the brightness set at 75%, how long could it last before dying? An hour?
I didn’t see anything about the battery being 1530. If not for that, this would be a no-brainer. If that’s true though, that’s a total deal-breaker.
