NVIDIA’s latest graphics solutions should be arriving within the second quarter of 2012. That said, it demands that the Santa Clara would have already  started shipping its products to OEMs before that time.

Meanwhile, notebook manufacturers are already receiving boxes of Kepler GPUs. Nevertheless, the true, biggest batch will only be available in some point around the middle of February. The first notebooks will have the GPUs supporting Intel’s Ivy Bridge series of CPUs (central processing units).

With AMD Radeon HD 7000M GPUs also scheduled to appear within the timeframe, everything will result in offers like Dell’s Alienware lineup, which will have both Radeon HD 7970M as well as GeForce GTX 660M graphic options.

What most people may not expect is that Kepler will also land inside Ultrabooks as well, knowing the need for thinness and, so the chance that these new portable PCs will do away with the Integrated GPU of the central processor.

Assuming NVIDIA really hits the Ultrabook design, chances are only entry-level as Kepler solutions will be small enough to fit.

Two new updates have followed a press event in Hamburg as Acer unveils its new products in its tablet line-up, the Iconia Tab A700 and A510. The Tablet Community as well as the Tablet Test expect the quad-core Android 4.0 tablets to be produced starting in February or March and should be available in April.

One Acer staff, gave the tentative pricing for both models. The A510 would likely sell at €500 with tax included. On the other hand, the 64GB A700 will cost no more than €749. Prices could go down when “competition” calls for it. The European costs could also be the basis for American pricing, which is more or less the same and could mean a range of $499 to $749 before tax.

The two Iconia Tabs sport 10-inch screens and runs on NVidia Tegra 3 processors, which give them much better performance. However, the A510 has a 1280×800 resolution, while the A700 will have a 1920×1080 display that’s very much ideal for web browsing, reading, and video playback. Acer is expected to release 16GB versions of each.

Though Fujitsu isn’t one of the biggest name in mobile devices, the Japanese company still has its hopes to change the near future with its new tablet, called the Stylistic m532 that’s built on Nvidia’s Tegra 3 quad-core SoC.

While Acer’s Iconia Tab A700 and the Asus Transformer TF700 possess high-res display, the m532 is built around a 10.1-inch screen that’s capable of pushing almost 1280×800 pixels.

Inside of this machine is Nvidia’s Tegra 3 SoC, along with 16GB of Flash storage, which should suit the needs for many users. If this, however, isn’t enough, storage can be expanded by installing a microSD card.

The slot required by this sort of cards is placed on the side of the tablet, right near a SIM card slot, a mini-HDMI output and a micro-USB port, the latter being used for charging and/or connecting the tablet to a computer. The m532 also includes one front webcam sporting a 3MP resolution and a rear 8MP snapper with flash.

Fujitsu’s tablet should be available in May this year for only $630. The demo unit was running Android 3.2 Honeycomb, but the final version will arrive with Android 4.0 ICS.

All the models should be available from April, as this is when Intel is expected to launch its first batch of Ivy Bridge processors.
