Acer has been talking about launching its own smartphone for quite some time now and now they’ve set a date for its launch. The company sent out invitations yesterday to its press conference in Barcelona February 16th at the Mobile World Congress. The invitation indicates that Acer’s president and CEO Gianfranco Lanci will be speaking, and that the company intends on launching its first smartphone.
Acer first mentioned its intention to launch a smartphone in April of last year after acquiring E-Ten. At the time Gianfranco indicated the phone would be Microsoft based and that over time the company expected smartphones to make up close to 10-percent of the company’s revenue.
