Wallpapers, images, videos and ringtones? Is that what they meant by “Acer has completely personalised the user interface”? What a joke.
wow, that is an ugly phone.
I’d hit it!
i’m from Modena, the city where Ferrari is made and Ferrari fan…..but i’d never buy a smart like that!
Fugalicious.
The HTC Evo is a perfect example of how red on a phone can make it drop dead gorgeous.
The Acer Liquid E Ferrari Edition is a perfect example of how red on a phone can make it drop dead horrendous. The whole thing looks like a toy you’d find at the dollar store.
It’s pretty stupid looking – especially with the ACER slapped on the back in white.
Acer fooled their clients. They did not provide Eclair for Acer Liquid – first version and forced ppl to buy the liquid E – Never again Acer. Or at least if you buy an Acer, I suggest you keep in mind that no upgrade will come to your handset … IMHO ….
meh… wake me up when the Murciélago phone gets here.
The Ferrari factory is in Maranello, not Modena.
anyone know when this phone would be launched in Scandinavia/denmark?
