Acer A1 Android phone listed for pre-order with 768MHz processor

We'd been hearing that Acer's Android-based A1 smartphone would be hitting this month, and while we still haven't heard anything official, it's just gone up for pre-order at Expansys. The spec sheet is rather intriguing, since it lists Android 2.0 Donut and a 768MHz Qualcomm 8250 processor, which is a 240MHz bump over every other Android set on the market right now. Pre-orders aren't insane at €389 ($571), but we'll see what official pricing and carrier support look like before we reach for our wallets.

Searching Acer A1 turns up nothing on expansys.com

After dealing with Acer's complete (and I truly mean complete) lack of support for their phones, I'd suggest everyone give this one the wide berth.

You must be mad boy.
Look at that big bezel and little screen , lack of Sense UI (and plain sense too), lack of support for Acer phones, etc. etc.
Get yourself a nice Hero and you will be an happy geek for a very long time.

I could be wrong, I can't keep track of these things, but isn't 1.6 Donut and 2.0 Eclair?
