Last week, Acer finally made their entry into ultra-portable market scene official by showcasing their new baby, the Aspire One.
A quick rundown of specs show that it runs on an Intel Atom 1.6GHz processor and comes with 1GB RAM, 8GB SSD, Wi-Fi (b/g), 1.3-megapixel webcam, and multi-card reader. Even though the international release states that an 80GB version running on Windows XP is available, the Linux variant was the only one unveiled locally. RAM is expandable, but Acer will only allow you to replace one module as the other standard 512MB RAM is soldered on the unit. A bit odd if you ask me, but I figure not many will notice this little drawback as most who eventually buy these ultra affordable units don’t bother to modify them. Nevertheless, the option to be able to do so would have been nice so you can beef it up to 2GB RAM considering that this one looks like a more affordable version of the HP Mini Note that runs on an Intel Atom albeit the smaller 8GB SSD capacity.
SRP is P18800.00. It’s priced just right with enough specs to compete head on with the Eee. However, with its more attractive dsign, Acer might just have what it takes to take the thunder away from Asus.

very interesting..worthwhile testing or trying to see how it works..
I wonder how much will the fully upgraded version cost. Impressive.
I got one and, among the present crop of UMPCs, it's the touch-typist's dream come true.
pron ko pa lang, hidni na kakasya jan sa 3GB
3 GB? don't you mean 8GB?
i really like this specially if its with a 120gb hard disk drove (i've seen it on acer site. is it arriving the shores of the Philippines? when?). if im in the market for UMPCs, im getting this one. naka bili na ako ng full size laptop kaya di na toh kailangan. but when it comes to portability, panalo toh!
noted...and corrected (my bad)
Narinig ko na sa Acer One 3 cell bat ang gamit kaya 18.8K ung price. magkano kaya ang price if ung six cell bat ung kukunin with the same specs bat lang pinalitan..pwede ba bumili nung ganung combination? salamat..wala kasi ako makitang ganon sa mga on-line vendors, so far
where in Manila can I buy this Acer Aspire please and do they hae a large similar version too
Villman.
PC gilmore meron na rin...
villman??? omg.. Don’t buy in villman WEST AVENUE. I advice you to go to the mall rather than in villman WEST AVENUE. I guarantee you and promise you that you would regret buying there I swear. People are not accommodating, poor service, products are not complete they would tell you that they don’t have any stock. What the hell??? Or their just so lazy to get the product that you want to buy. Damn!!!! That place was so sucks especially the staffs. For short going there was so stupid, can ruin your day, you won’t be satisfied in your product, they don’t care for the satisfaction of the customer. Anyway I won’t enumerate everything coz’ one day is not enough to explain what the hell the store was. I’m not criticizing the store, I’m just telling the truth. So sad……………….
ei how it is in the philippines now??
Aspire One Owners!!! I'm looking for two other people who purchased the same unit to register and join their ongoing promo.
