Acer announced about a week ago that it planned to enter the cell phone market starting this year. Moreover, the personal computer maker also stated that it would come to MWC with its first handset. We learn now that this device will be a dual-SIM Windows Mobile-powered phone dubbed Acer DX900, which will also feature 3G connectivity support.
Besides high-speed 3.5G (UMTS/HSDPA) support, Acer's device also includes 2G (GSM/EDGE) capabilities, along with built-in GPS and Wi-Fi connectivity. Although other companies have already unveiled dual-SIM capable mobile phones on the market, DX900 would be the first one to support both HSDPA and GSM on both SIM card channels.
The Acer DX900 handset will include a 2.8-inch VGA color transflective TFT display capable of delivering a 468x640 pixel resolution, as well as a built-in 3.0-megapixel auto-focus CMOS camera, which can provide a resolution of up to 2048x1536 pixels, and a 0.3-megapixel fixed-focus CMOS camera that can be used for conference calls.
The new mobile phone is powered by a Samsung S3C 6400 533 MHz processor, it packs 256MB of ROM and 128MB of RAM memory, and it runs under Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional. The Acer DX900 sports a USB 2.0 and miniUSB connectivity, complemented by Bluetooth 2.0 EDR and WiFi 802.11b, 802.11g capabilities.
More specifications on the handset include microSD expansion memory card slot, built-in microphone and speaker, external stereo headset jack and support for hands-free, composite TV out support, touchscreen capabilities, navigation button, power button, send/end button, record button and volume control.
The new dual-SIM TV phone packs a wide range of software applications inside, including Microsoft Office Outlook Mobile and Microsoft Office Mobile, Internet Explorer Mobile, ActiveSync or Windows Media Player 10, which come along Acer's Exclusive applications like Phone Tools, Multimedia Tools, Utilities and GPS Tools.
Acer DX900 includes a 1530 mAh battery, measures 106x60.5x17 mm and weighs 147 grams. The PC maker hasn't unveiled yet any details on the availability or the price of the device, but it should do so at MWC in Barcelona in mid February.
