My Friday ended on an awesome note - I received the new Acer Iconia W510 tablet with Windows 8 as part of the #TabletCrew !
The first thing I did when I opened the box was ask Chris to help me compare it to my current tablet (whose fruity maker shall remain unamed). Now, don't get me wrong, I love the tablet I already had.
But I'm a PC. I love my Windows operating system and I was totally excited to try the new Windows 8 operating system in a tablet!
I'm using the new Acer Iconia W510 tablet which is the world's first Intel CPU-based tablet with Acer Always On technology. The first things I noticed when looking up the info about my new tablet was that this Acer Always On technology means that it turns on with just the touch of a button (just like a smartphone does) and it can last up to 3 weeks on standby power and it links to wifi hot spots in 2.5 seconds!

If you know me, then you know that this always on? It's a godsend. I need immediate gratification. Always.
I've only had the Acer Iconia W510 for a few days now, but I am already swooning over this newest piece of technology, and Chris wants me to sell my other tablet. We will see if I can get enough for it to buy the awesome keyboard that is available for the Acer Iconia W510 tablet - it turns it into a little laptop computer!
I am going on a press trip to Kissimmee next week and I am already planning on taking this little gem with me. It's super light weight because of the 10.1" design and can easily fit into my purse (I carry a large purse). I can handle blogging on the go, editing photos, check the bank account balance, use email and of course, stay on top of my social media networks!
The Acer Iconia W510 has everything that I need, available right at my fingertips - Windows 8, a super fast Intel Atom processor Z2760, a USB port and tons of apps, Internet Explorer and Google Chrome!

YES, I said it has Google Chrome.
I can't tell you how irritating it has been using my other tablet and suffering through Safari!
Even the kittens like my new tablet!
I'll be coming back and sharing more about my new Acer Iconia W510 tablet each week as part of the #IntelTablets #TabletCrew .
Make sure you check back for updates as I begin using it more and travel with it next week!
