In Electronics Outlets?
You mean to actually buy off store shelves, or just preorder on line?

Few in stores, first owners (not me yet) are testing it.
One chain got a stock, but spread among the stores doesn't make many. They should be out of stock by to-morrow if not already so I guess more to come soon un a next delivery. At least the commercial version is really out.

Someone in Western Canada had posted one yesterday for sale online. When I emailed inquiring, he said he received his pre-order from The Futureshop. It is showing April 25th delivery online at the Futureshop website. I cannot confirm he legitimately received it, but given the recent French launch, I am hopeful.

Few in Luxembourg too at the same time (that is now a couple of days ago) in store chain Saturn. As this is a german chain I can't imagine some germans didn't get it, but I have not heard of it.
Surprisingly other stores in France can't get a precise info on when they'll get it. Dates vary but it's expected next week or the other.
This must have been some limited pre-launch.
This info has been removed from the Acer online shop. I chatted with an agent and was told the release has been delayed. Unfortunately, I closed the window before copying exactly what he said, needless to say I'm disappointed. Ugh! BTW: I specifically asked for the US release info.
Rats!
Actually, apart from this batch which was sold (200 units, it has been said) as if it was coming from nowhere, info we get for more are about as erratic as yours. One date, canceled, another.
Was it some IRL testing? Like, if there are some big issues you only get 200 complaints?
Would you read french or not you'll get at least results from some benchmark here:

4ARTICLE: Device no longer shipping due to defective hardware
http://phandroid.com/2012/05/22/ace...re/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter3I had this problem as well. When I put the a510 in a case the entire bottom half of the screen became unresponsive. In a stand, same thing. As soon as I picked up the tablet it was back to normal.
There IS a simple fix.
You have all probably tried changing the screen sensitivity in settings - this DOES work - problem is it doesn't work for the reason you think. The problem Is not screen sensitivity. I think it is that the touch sensor isn't initializing when the tablet is booted up.
When you change the settings in screen sensitivity it forces the touch panel to initialize - ie start up correctly, which it isn't doing on a reboot. The actual setting I don't think really matters.
Try this - reboot your tablet and then lay it flat on the table - or put it on a stand or in a case - you'll notice that the lower half of the screen becomes insensitive just like in the video.
Now, pick up the tablet, go into settings, and change the screen sensitivity from whatever it is to another setting ie medium to high or high to medium. Exit the menu, then go back in and change it again to whatever setting you prefer.
You have forced the touch sensor to initialize. Now put your tablet on the table or in a stand or case and you'll notice that the screen works normally. The bottom menus work fine.
BUT you must repeat this after every - reboot or the problem will return, because on reboot the touch sensor will again not start properly. Basically, it looks like you have to manually start up the touch sensor on this tablet - can't imagine how a problem this severe got overlooked.
On the good side, my tablet has been working fine in between reboots if I just follow these steps.
Oh, incidently, the fact that this fix works every single time for me, indicates that this likely is not a hardware problem. If the screen can be made to work correctly, then it CAN work - if Acer gets around to releasing a software fix for it.2Just found this in another thread... good to know:
Just so everyone knows, this root kit also works on the new Iconia A510.
I just got my Acer Iconia A510 from Amazon this morning and decided to install the USB drivers and tried this rooting kit and low and behold I got full root access.
Thanks ZeroNull!!!!
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25036001&postcount=932yep, but no internet access currently
for now, antutu gave me same scoring, but once was higher (around 10k)
i found that connecting my tab to the pc, then disconnecting it without unmount, gives me a really unstable tab..
anyway, the global feeling is that this tab will go back to acer, it's not stable at all,
i miss my A501..
i thought i could have a really powerful tab, instead of that i've got a buggy tab..
