Acer A1 the first Android phone we really want
Android has so far been released on what I would call “lower high end” hardware in that the hardware hasn’t exactly been very drool inducing. That is about to change with the Acer A1. If you didn’t know, the A1 will be the first Android handset to go north of 600 MHz as it packs a 768 MHz beast inside. Though processing power isn’t the only thing to talk about. Everything from the WVGA 3.5″ 800 x 400 screen to the fact it’ll come from the womb rockin’ Android 2.0 Donut mean this will certainly turn many heads. Currently, the only release info we have is that of a price (390 Euros — ~ $571 USD) and an apparent lack of any US release info as well as any more information about that touchscreen such as: Is it capacitive or resistive? Hopefully *fingers crossed* Acer will recognize the vast potential and clamoring Android user base that would love to see this device come stateside.
