So, after saying to myself for a while that I'd never buy a tablet, a friend of mine in work got the Samsung Galaxy Tab v2 from America, and then I decided to buy... a tablet. (Yes, I know - what am I like).
I opted for the Acer A500. While it's bigger and heavier, it packs a lot in connectivity wise. Sported on one side is a full size USB port and a micro USB slot. On the other, a micro HDMI, and a 3.5mm audio port. Nice. The cameras are OK in good light, but not so hot in darker environments.
Anyway, back to the main story.
Acer released the Honeycomb 3.1 update on June 5th 2011. It is now Tuesday 19th June 2011, and no sign of an update for me.
I am usually a patient fellow but I grew weary of waiting.
Contacting Acer support, I got a quick reply, but was told I incorrectly contacted Acer US. Ok, my bad. I then contacted Acer UK and I am still waiting for a reply, 4 days later.
After a lot of internet scouring I found a very interesting article online. And here is said article:

I know now that I can only wait until they resolve the problem. I really hope that they sort out their servers (or server, as it would seem...hmmmm) for the next update to 3.2
Digiman out.
