Personally, I don't do many OTA updates. (I make my own roms).
However, I believe, if you have the tablet as close to stock as possible, the chances of a successful OTA are greatly increased.
IE; Do a factory reset and try it. Things such as launchers and utility apps may cause an issue.
Keep in mind, the early OTA for the 700 had some issues, so Acer stopped them momentarily.
