The unit we looked at was running Android 4.0.3 and still an early build, if the performance we saw was any indication. It took the screen nearly half a second to light up when we hit the power button, a delay no-doubt introduced by the still-alpha custom lock screen. You can slide to unlock and see a clever window-blind effect that transitions from the lockscreen to the screen underneath. You can also slide to unlock four dock icons to jump directly into each app. There may be more customizations on top of Android, Acer tells us, but it promised that they wouldn't be too heavy.

Acer says it's aiming for a Q3 release and will definitely be including its Acer Cloud offering.
