Buy the Acer Liquid A1 at MobiCity.
Acer Liquid is the company’s first product running on Google’s Android 1.6 platform. The phone features a WVGA capacitive touchscreen and a 5MP camera with autofocus and geo-tagging, A-GPS, Wi-Fi and is powered by 768 MHz processor.
The Liquid is loaded with Android version 1.6, known as Donut within the tech circle. On the surface, the Liquid's interface is mostly related to the Android default user interface (UI), but there are some specific widgets added on by the company. This includes some slight tweaking on its dialer and camera UI.
The notable ones are Acer specific widgets that look like a spin wheel to access your media and browser content. Media playback, as what we've seen, is either through Android's default music player, or the nemoPlayer loaded by Acer. In fact, online multimedia delivery is one of the main focus areas for the Liquid, via its Spinlets app, which provides free streaming of worldwide music and video.
Taking a cue from HTC, social networking will be another point of focus for the Acer Liquid. This includes contacts synchronization with your Facebook account, and integrating direct media uploading portals such as YouTube, Flickr and Picasa onto the Android device.

Best value Android phone Review by Neerav
Value Performance Design Features Australian professional blogger Neerav Bhatt recently tested the Acer Liquid A1 Android smartphone and was really surprised that Acer hasn’t officially released it in Australia yet.
It’s the best value Android phone sold in Australia for the price Mobicity is charging, with a big 480×800px WVGA capacitive touchscreen (2.5 times iPhone resolution), 5mp camera, GPS, Wi-Fi and a swift 768 MHz processor.
The Liquid's main strength is it's 480×800px WVGA touchscreen and it's main weakness for the moment is that it ships with Android 1.6. Buyers will have to wait a few months for an upgrade to Android 2.1 to be released by Acer.
