Acer's UK press team has been atypically loquacious today in disclosing the expected launch window and Android version
for its upcoming Liquid Metal handset. We've confirmed ourselves that
the end of October is the period now circled on Her Majesty's calendar,
though we suspect the rest of Europe, if not the entire world, will be
getting to grips with the Froyo-packing smartphone at about that time
as well. The unconfirmed specs (gotta keep a little mystery, right?)
include the same 800MHz Qualcomm MSM7230 as inside the T-Mobile G2,
a 3.6-inch display with 800 x 480 resolution, Bluetooth 3.0 onboard,
and the handsome backplate you see above, which seems to have been made
out of brushed aluminum. So how do you feel, is there room for yet
another contender on your smartphone wishlist?
