*Note: please read the fine print in these ads. Many items have severe quantity restrictions per store. If it says "minimum 4 per store", there's a good chance your store will only have 4 in stock. Recent trends find people camping out a day or two (and even longer) in advance to be first in line when the sales begin.

Threads have purpose? or is that porpoise?

tubemonkey · 10-27-2011, 06:25 AM

Looking for Acer Iconia a500, please post if you see a good price, prefer store pickup that I can claim on Monday or Tuesday. $250 (or less) is my trigger point and I think this is realistic during this time.

kennyc · 11-01-2011, 06:52 AM

That would be a heck of a price for an A500

Greg_E · 11-01-2011, 10:32 AM

Not to take this too far off topic, but the a500 are now at around $300 and it is a little "old", Acer is preparing the next version which may hit shelves before December and might drive the price down. They should also have their next Windows tablet by then with faster processor and better graphics chip which may drive the price on the W500 down to realistic. I think $250 for the a500 is about the normal sale price that you'll see, hoping to see more like $200 to try and get you in the door to buy other things. Pretty sure HP still made some profit on the Touchpad at $99 retail which tells me that the a500 has a lot of room to come down for a sale.

I should add that Newegg started their November sales month... Not a single Android device was listed. I expect to see an ad from them about every day or at least twice a week.

kennyc · 11-01-2011, 11:32 AM

We'll see.

I think you are being optimistic.

It's only 8 months old

Before long, they'll be churning tablets out every 3 months

Walmart is having a Super Saturday sale this Sat 05 Nov for select toys and electronics. One of the items in the ad is the Nook Color for $199 and it's listed as a price rollback from $249; not a sale item. Nook Color 2 is on the way.

In store sale starts at 11am. Online sale TBA.
