The good: Most affordable 10.1-inch post-Honeycomb tablet; full USB port; expandable memory options; upgradeable to ICS; well-designed, grippy backside.

The bad: Low-quality, front-facing camera; no rear camera; no HDMI; Acer Ring is slow to start.

The bottom line: The Acer Iconia Tab A200 delivers an appealing, low price, but makes some key sacrifices to get there.

Review: 

There's really nothing special about the Acer Iconia Tab A200. Sure, it's ICS-upgradable, but both the Motorola Xoom and Asus Transformer Prime have already beaten it to the punch. 

Also, while it features the bare minimum capabilities of all other post-Honeycomb Android tablets, it actually loses two features many Android tablet owners take for granted: A rear camera and an HDMI port. 

Still, it can be yours for only US$330 (for 8GB; US$350 for 16GB), making it the cheapest non-contract buy-in to Honeycomb/ICS yet.

Whether that distinction actually makes it special enough to buy is up to you and your needs. Acer has informed us that the company is targeting to launch the A200 with ICS early next month in Singapore. There's no further word on pricing yet.
