The Indian subsidiary of Acer has announced a further price cut on its current 8.9-inch Aspire One model. This is the second price cut we are seeing in under a month. The new price for the Linux variant now stands at Rs. 14,499 ($301) while the Windows version goes for Rs. 16,499 ($343).

Acer’s aggressive pricing actually hints about something – a 10.1-inch AA1. The price reduction is a possible move to stick the larger Aspire One in the original price bracket, which should be between Rs. 20,000 to 22,000.
