Acer pretty much announced a bajillion notebooks today. You’ll recall that the company announced a skillion netbooks on Friday, bringing the total number of newly-announced portable computers from Acer to a bajillion-skillion.

Take the phone off the hook, send the kids to Grandma’s, and light some aromatherapy candles as you prepare to hunker down for a weekend of iPad modding. If you want to stuff a Verizon 3G connection into your iPad, that is.
