[Acer](http://www.engadget.com/tag/Acer/) looks ready to launch an entry-level tablet into the market judging by an FCC application that popped up today along with an earlier [GLBenchmark](http://www.engadget.com/tag/GLBenchmark/) leak. The test site's report shows a likely 7-inch or so tab with a 1,024 x 600 display, Android 4.1.2 Jellybean, 1.2GHz dual-core processor and [PowerVR SGX](http://www.engadget.com/tag/PowerVR+SGX/) 531 GPU along with very modest test results. Those specs now look very credible when combined with the new FCC document, which shows it sporting WiFi radios but no other data options. The company has been mum so far about when such a device would arrive and at what cost, but judging by the above, it's unlikely to be a bank-breaker. Check the source if parsing radio reports _is_ your bag.
