Acer launches its Tempo Smartphone Series

Acer has already proven that it has what it takes to divert from the traditional PC market with the company’s successful Aspire One netbook. Now it wants to prove that it can do the same in the mobile phone market as it launches the Acer Tempo Smartphone series. And boy, they do know how to do it with a bang by announcing not just one, but four new smartphones in the series - the X960, F900, M900, and DX900 with all four touting WVGA touch screen features.
Now this may be a handful of new mobile phones for a starter, but are these devices different from one another? Of the four it’s quite obvious that the M900 and the DX900 are the more promising devices. The M900 is a Windows Mobile phone running version 6.1 while the DX900 has a dual-SIM slot for additional functionality and convenience. Of course, with Windows Mobile 6.1 running on the M900, we don’t have to tell you that you can do a lot of mobile office computing using the phone. The DX900’s dual-SIM slot would let you load both 3.5G (HSDPA) and 2.75G (EDGE) SIM cards. Both the Acer M900 and DX900 would surely appeal to users whose levels of mobile phone usage vary from personal to business functionality.
Going back to the other two Acer phones, both the X960 and F900 offer features which would cater to the casual mobile phone users who want to have a taste of smartphone functionality. Both smartphones have GPS functionality, 3.2 megapixel cameras with auto focus, FM radio, and mobile web browsing capability.
Interestingly all four new Acer mobile phone sport WVGA touch screen features which is actually a good thing since Acer is entering a mobile phone market where touch screen navigation is now a standard feature.
So, are you excited about these new Acer mobile phones?

Take a look at the HTC website and you will see what I mean.
