Acer Iconia Tab A110 reaches North America on October 30th for $230, faces a tough fight

Acer hasn't had an easy mid-year: it trotted out the [Iconia Tab A110](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/05/acer-iconia-tab-a210-a110/) at Computex as a budget Android tablet that could still claim [Tegra 3](http://www.engadget.com/tag/Tegra3/) speeds, only to watch the [Nexus 7](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/nexus-7-review/) arrive and leave virtually every other comparable tablet in a [tight spot](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/19/acer-iconia-tab-a110-comes-to-europe-this-fall-with-jelly-bean/). It's North America's turn at the A110 this month, and the side-by-side looks aren't getting much easier. When the 7-inch [Jelly Bean](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/android-4-1-jelly-bean-review-a-look-at-whats-changed-in-googl/) slate ships to the continent on October 30th, it will cost $230 in both the US and Canada for the lone 8GB version -- a better value than we see in Europe, but still a slightly awkward middle ground between an 8GB Nexus 7 at $199 and its $249, 16GB edition. We're guessing that Acer is counting on the microSD and micro-HDMI expansion to tempt would-be North American buyers away from a less flexible (if Google-blessed) rival.
