Recently Acer introduced its smartphone X960, and yesterday, the company also decided to make official the launch of its DX900 model, a mobile that is characterized by its support for two SIM cards, simultaneously. 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.

I think Acer got it wrong. This phone does not have a free to air TV like the Sakhumzantsi Dual SIM phones. And amazingly this phones is more expensive. This becomes internet over cellphone versus TV and I will choose TV.
