Pushed just a little by Nvidia, Acer has now revealed the first commercial product based on the ION platform, the AspireRevo. Coming in a quite compact casing, the nettop features a 1.6 GHz Atom 230 CPU, up to 4GB of RAM, a maximum of 250GB of storage space, GeForce 9400M integrated graphics and a 4-in-1 card reader.

"The AspireRevo is small and quiet enough to go anywhere, yet big enough to handle all the needs of your digital lifestyle," said Gianpiero Morbello, corporate vice president of marketing for Acer. "It's perfectly suited for the living room, because Nvidia ION provides a brilliant graphics experience with digital photos, watching video, and playing family-friendly games."

In terms of connectivity, the little AspireRevo offers VGA and HDMI outputs, six USB 2.0 ports, two audio outs and an eSATA port too. The Acer AspireRevo is set to be loaded with Windows Vista Home Premium and make its debut this summer, either at the end of Q2 or in the first part of Q3. The nettop's price has not been revealed.
