Looks like quite a few folks have got their hands on the
Acer Liquid as of late, and lucky for us they've been rather loose-lipped with their thoughts on the subject. As
suspected, the handset is running a 1GHz Snapdragon that's been under-clocked to 768MHz. And it looks like Acer didn't go crazy with the User Experience either, pretty much staying true to its Google Android 1.6 roots, albeit with a number of additions, including: social networking integration (Facebook and Flickr contacts and photo sharing), nemoPlayer for multimedia files, DataViz for Microsoft Exchange support, and the Spinlets music streaming service. In addition, Acer has redesigned some of the widgets, including the clock and the task manager, which now includes a preview of open apps. All-in-all, it seems to be a pretty solid Android handset with a few useful additions -- but as always, the verdict is out until we get our hands on one. In the meantime, hit up the read links below for a generous helping of screenshots, hands-on pics, and impressions.

Wooooooot commppeetttiiiitiiiooonnn
my keys appear to be stuck.
typing from an Acer, hey?
what is going to be price ..
i am using acer travel mater from last 3 years, bought it for less then 1000$ and working like charm ..
good compulsorily doesn't mean to be expensive
Funny, I just bought (and received) my ThinkPad T400 for $520US
Some would say ThinkPad build quality is better than Acer's...
... For the time being that is (Please Lenovo, don't make the T400e. Please! I would pay to not buy that laptop. Chicklet keys do not belong on a ThinkPad)
Will this thing frost up during the cold winter months?
I like it, I'd consider putting it in my butt.
verizon or nothing
1.6 huh,,,,, That's just not gonna cut it anymore.
If you are stuck with AT&T like I am, any Android will cut it.
why do you WANT to stick with att? or is it because of work?
The iPhone's screen is so lo-rez, things look almost blurry after using the Droid for a while
Everybody Android!
snapdragon and droid processor is still less efficient iphone 3gs processor by apple
Huh? The droid processor is almost the exact same as the one in the iphone 3gs.
[Citation Needed]
but who gets better battery life?
3gs processor isnt made by apple its designed by arm and manufactured by samsung or something but it isnt made by apple apple just put the parts together and made the software!
Unfortunately, Apple fanboyism doesn't help you think more efficiently.
It seems nice and all, but I'll stick with my TwitterPeek.
FAIL
add to gtf list.
Guaranteed to fail.
Is this supposed to be more like a phone or MID?
I can't tell the difference between a troll and an iphone fanboy, although neither seem to display common sense.
It's missing a camera flash and a more innovative design.
Other than that it looks like a good, no frills Android phone.
good to see another keyboardless phone, but i find the trackball on the hero indispensable for moving the cursor through a line of text. it's extremely difficult to do that with just the touchscreen.
AT&...
Ahh who am I kidding...c'mon HTC Pure, lets go finish those registry tweaks...
ain't nothing wrong with plain android
is there a google gps navigator app for android 1.6?
the reason i want a android phone cus of free google gps navigator!
no but most 2.0 stuff seems backwards compatible cause i have the new 2.0 maps and others on my donut g1
just give me this as a PMP/DAP and I would be happy. don't need it as a phone.
