Meet the Acer Tempo Series!

March 10th, 2009 by Kunal

Acer announced four new smartphones at the WMC 2009. While these phones are well targeted to their customers, they cannot be upgraded to Windows Mobile 6.5. These phones run on Windows Mobile 6.1. Acer is ready to be a tough competitor in the 3G mobile sector while focusing on touch phones to target all niches.

Here is a quick look at the four Acer Tempo series models; X960, F900, M900 & DX900.

X960 has an entirely new shape and design and has sufficient features to be a good gadget in mid-range.

Whiel F900 have similar specs as those of X960 it would please those who prefer larger screen.
