Acer introduce 4.8-inch Android smartphone

Acer may be calling this "100 percent smartphone. 100 percent tablet.," but something just doesn't add up there. That being said, we have to agree that a 1024x480 screen resolution on a 4.8-inch smartphone is downright drool-worthy. Clocking in at just a smidgen smaller than Dell's Streak, this here phone was just revealed at Acer's Global press event in New York City.

It was only shown briefly, demonstrating an unknown version of Android and the "evolution of Acer UI." Specs wise, there's a 1.3 megapixel front-facing camera, 8 megapixel rear camera (with LED flash), 720p video recording, a six-axis gyroscope and LED edge lighting. Per usual, Acer's keeping a lid on any pricing estimates, but it'll be shipping out to gap-jawed customers everywhere in April 2011.
