I’m going to go on record here by saying that the Acer Liquid is more than a valid alternative to the iPhone. It’s just as slick, has a better screen resolution, and if anything is slightly faster, but the killer is the Android Marketplace which lets you set it up just the way you want it, which means I’m still Tweeting and Shazamming but I’m also chatting on Gtalk and Skype while getting live updates on my friends’ Social Network sites.

There’s a bit of a lull over at The Acer Guy HQ.
Guess that’s the price for working flat out over the entire Christmas period.
The buzz here at the moment is all about the kickoff event in a week’s time. If you ask me I think they should re-invent the name and bring it up to [...]

Was it me or was the site down all afternoon?
I won’t know until later on but my Google Analytics page tells me we had a blip.
