I bought a birthday present for myself this week - an Acer Iconia A500 tablet, on ebay refurbished for $227. I'm moving from a rooted CM7 Nook Color to the Acer, and I'm wondering if there are any benefits to rooting the Acer? Can the Acer be rooted after the ICS update? Also, if someone could link me to the latest instructions on how to root the Acer, should I decide, it would be greatly appreciated.
