We had high hopes that Acer was going to make a big announcement at this year's Mobile World Congress regarding an Android phone. What we got instead was news of a range of Windows Mobile smartphones in the form of the Acer Tempo range - nice looking handsets but not Android. Despite this there was still talk of supposed future "secret models" which may or may not run Android.
Now Electricpig has gotten things fired up again with news that Acer smartphone boss Aymer De Lencquesaing has confirmed two more smartphones for Q4 2009. When pressed on the subject of Acer using other operating systems he admitted that "there is this possibility, yes."
Aaaaargh! What is that supposed to mean? Let's just hope that Acer is paying close attention to HTC's success and comes on board although there's still no sign of them on the Open Handset Alliance member list. Come on Acer, what are you waiting for?
