Thursday, February 11th, 2010

The Bluetooth Special Interest Group has let slip a few details of another Android-based handset from Acer. The device will be a touch screen smart phone with quadband GSM, 850 / 1900 bands (AT&T), and A-GPS.   Considering the source, we also know it will have Bluetooth.  As we head into next week’s Mobile World Congress, we expect to see plenty of Android handsets announced. Perhaps Acer will drop a few more details on this one.

Acer’s Liquid Android Phone Destroying Predictions

acer-liquid-a1-saleThe Acer’s Liquid A1 device has been smashing company predictions and expects its smartphone sales to total around 2 to 3 million units this year, according to Gianfranco Lanci, president of the Taipei-based company.

Acer expects to ship at least 250,000 Liquid handsets by the end of this quarter, which is way ahead of the initial expectations of 150,000 to 200,000. “Liquid is doing much better than our expectation,” Lanci said in an interview “This is why we’re a little bit short of supply.”

Seems like Acer has been doing well for themselves, does anyone prefer the Liquid A1 and Acer’s UI in comparison to some of the competitors out there? It will be interesting to see if Acer continues to supersede their predictions. Check out the rest of the interview with Gianfranco Lanci at Business Week.
