In addition to the all-in-one PCs revealed earlier this morning in the Z series, Acer is presenting this week their first official glimpse of two all-in-one PCs under the Veriton name, Z2620G and Z2610G. While the Z series devices released this morning are mostly for entertainment it would seem, the Veriton duo here looks to be set for business. Ideal for "anywhere that space conservation and presentation are a priority" says Acer's Commercial Systems Business Manager Leila Axelle Robert, and with a 20-inch display on each of these units with a slim display cutting down on bulk, they certainly are that.

Acer introduces AZ5 and AZ3 all-in-one PCs
This week Acer reveals two new all-in-one computers, the AZ5 Series with a 23-inch HD monitor and the AZ3 Series with a slightly smaller HD monitor at 21-inches, both computers featuring full touchscreen capabilities. Both series have several hardware options for processors, speakers, and storage, and contain a selection of software offered exclusively with Acer devices. You'll notice that these AIOs look rather similar to one another - that's because they're meant to be part of a single release.

Target is finally selling some Android tablets
If you’ve been following along with the epic telling of Target Superstore’s future in the Mobile business with your humble narrator, you know that they’re certainly having an interesting time selling Android tablets. Amid the Apple’s iPad 2 sitting always at least one aisle away from the Android selection in a MUCH nicer showing than the Android tablets have ever had and the smartphone wall being dominated by two iPhone displays three times the size of any other smartphone, one would think that Apple would be dominating. As it turns out, one Android tablet in particular may be jumping off the shelves.
