If you want an Android smart phone but are strapped for cash, the 845 could fit the bill. Its small, low-resolution screen means it doesn't offer the best Web-browsing experience, but it runs the latest version of Android, 2.1, and offers a cute, compact design Read more

Acer Liquid Metal review

Black is white and up is down in the Acer Liquid Metal's topsy-turvy custom user interface. Happily, you can turn it off, resulting in a perfectly passable Android 2.2 smart phone. Read more
