The A500 is getting difficult to find. Best Buy is selling the refurbished 16GB Acer Iconia A500 for $299.99 right now, but they no longer carry them new. I did see one on display at my local Best Buy last week, but I didn't check to see if there were any actually in stock. The A500 is still available at Amazon, but prices aren't marked down yet. Maybe we'll see that happen once the new A200 is available there.
I don't see any advantages to the new A200 when compared to the A500. The features seem to be the same except that the A500 has two cameras while the A200 has only the front-facing webcam. I don't suppose many people use a 10" tablet to take photos anyway.
The styles are slightly different between the two models, but price trumps looks for me, personally. I initially had ruled out the A500 because I didn't care for those silver bands top and bottom on the front. But I got such a smokin' deal on my 32GB A500 that style ceased being a consideration, and I actually like the way it looks now!
