News out from DigiTimes reports that Acer has no plans to compete with Apple's iPad. Word came from Scott Lin, president of the Taiwanese division of netbook. During the interview he said "Lin pointed out that designing an iPad-like device would not pose any technical challenges for Acer, but said such a product does not fit into Acer's business model.
Apple is able to support the iPad through its iTunes ecosystem, while few other makers, including Acer, have comparable experience in operating an online store, Lin noted."
