Acer DX900

Acer’s upcoming smartphone appears to be a simple copy of the existing Glofiish DX900 by E-Ten, which Acer acquired some time ago. The phone still runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 OS, and features a dual-SIM slot, GPS navigation, a 3Mpix camera, and a 2.8″ VGA touchscreen.

I know, no one wants to buy an old handset as a new one. We’ll see if it’s true after the Acer DX900 is presented at MWC 2009 show.
