Last time I checked Acer was known for making cheap computers. Apple on the other hand is known for making high-end fashion accessories. Nope, not gonna beat iPhone. A two second comparison of the companies' websites tells you which one is going to come out on top. Acer's website is a usability nightmare and has absolutely zero panache. Apple's website is all panache and very intuitive.

... and having an iPhone makes you cool. That about ends the discussion there.

I was going to joke 'bout some 'iphone killer curse' I then read it had a 1ghz processor and was going to running Android. This seems like something that might have a glimmer of hope.

I was actually going to counter with just the opposite response. Much like todays computers, I don't think most people are looking at an iphone and wishing it had more processing power/speed. Not that that isn't nice to have, but nobody cares. it's all about what the device can do, and how well it can do it. I think that for current use, that is 70% software/UI/design 30% hardware & network.

The UI tho seems like the generic Android UI, unlike HTC Sense or MotoBlur it doesn't have anything UI wise that Apple lacks and looks worse than the iPhone.

Internet "journalism" has just reached a new low.
