Acer DX900 and X960 slated for launch soon
Two models in Acer’s recently announced line of smartphones may be hitting the shelves soon according to Vincent Chen, manager of product marketing at Acer’s Smart Handheld Business. The DX900 is expected to be released by the end of the month and will feature a 2.8“ VGA touchscreen, dual SIM slots, quad-band GSM and tri-band UMTS/HSDPA, 3.2 MP autofocus camera, GPS, WiFi, bluetooth 2.0 and Windows Mobile 6.1. The X960, expected early next month, lacks the dual SIM capability of the DX900 but is otherwise similarly spec’d. The higher end M900 and F900 which sport a more respectable 3.8″ WVGA touchscreen display are not expected until later in Q2 2009.
The Tempo looks kiinda nice…
More garbage Win Mobile devices – FAIL. Way to innovate there Acer.
It all depends on timing.
If acer can get the “higher end” models to market quickly they’ll be the only winmo devices with a 3.0″+ screen.
I’d say having text you can actually read is pretty innovative.
If they have any sense, they’ll be available off contract at a decent price point. Some of us would love a new device and don’t need the newest, best thing. But we do want to avoid a new contract and a huge up front cost.
The one on the right looks….. Ok. Poor acer… They don’t read this blog at all.

nothing rugged with features I guss I have to what till 2010
AMEN to that!.
looks very htc-ish
badchad, Verizon’s Samsung Omnia has a 3.2″ screen. But I reckon that’s the only one with a descent size in the U.S.
Don’t charge over $300 for these and you will sell some
Hm… but only 3.2mp for a camera! I like it a lot, but I’m still thinking about getting the moto zine.
i WISH they release the M900 for cheap (150 at most…c’mon its a recession!) I’m lookin for a phone JUST like these, simply but gets the job done.
its not carrier specific is it?
Does everybody use the FAIL? That is officially dead apparently…..
I’d love a better camera in the phone, but otherwise i love the shape of the phone!
