Downloading ICS here in South Carolina. Looks to be about a 390+mb download. Slightly slow, but probably a lots of downloads in progress on the servers. Will update the list after my install.

I got the notice for the update but wanted to factory reset first. Once i booted back up im on 3.2.1 still and it says im up to date. Did i mess something up?

Downloaded the update on my a500 and rebooted like it prompted me. Been sitting on the Acer screen for about 30 minutes so far. Should I wait longer or try something else?

I'm in PA. Have a GEN2 A500 and nothing yet. I keep checking System Update and it still tells me it's up to date. I'm going to try repeatedly shutting down and powering up to see if the update process starts downloading.

Do they stagger the roll-outs by groups of serial numbers or something? I'm assuming they must as not to overload their servers.

Anyone else get the update yet?

If you go to Download and download Application (Iconia Tab Update Enhancement), You should be able to update.

emmanuelmac is correct. I have been waiting and waiting and trying and nothing. Downloaded the Acer Iconia Tab Update Enhancement .apk from the Acer website and installed it. I then went to About tablet->System update->check now and I immediately got prompted to download the ICS update.

Downloading it now.

Thanks for the tip!
