Even so, it is very possible this smartphone DX900 is more famous for the commotion it caused some days ago: it was the first Acer model in a development stage that was leaked to the press and it ended up being a redesign of another existing mobile (E-Ten Glofiish DX900).

Leaving aside this fact, the smartphone is presented with a screen similar to that of the X960: a 2.8-inch touchscreen (640 x 480). It supports HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access), but this support is limited to one of the SIM cards; for that reason, the another SIM card supports only the GSM standard. The mobile allows users to be connected via WiFi (802.11b/g) and includes a Bluetooth 2.0+EDR module.

This device is very oriented to a professional segment. It has installed the Outlook Mobile email client and other well-known programs such as Word, Excel and PowerPoint. All those program are installed on Windows Mobile 6.1 (of course). Regarding the other features, the most important could be a 3-megapixels camera with auto-focus, GPS (SiRFstar III), and built-in microphone / speakers.

Its measures are: 106mm tall, 60.5mm wide and 17mm thick. It weighs 147g. This mobile is able to offer a talk time of up to 5 hours and a stand-by time of up to 150 hours.
