Acer Inc, the world’s second largest PC brand will launch Acer Liquid, an Android phone that features a 5MP camera, 3.5” WVGA touch screen, on a Snapdragon CPU. Its other features include speeds of up to 7.2 Mbps though its HSPA (High Speed Packet Access) connectivity and Wifi synching. This quad-band marvel also allows synching with popular social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter.
By keeping its smartphones relatively cheap, Acer aims to capture 6 to 7 percent of the market for smartphones in the next 3 to 5 years. They also plan to come out with 8 to 10 good quality phones each year, which is a far from what is being produced by top mobile phone manufacturers each year.
