The rumour is true: the Acer Liquid E will come with an underclocked Snapdragon processor running at 768MHZ. This is likely a marketing move to keep the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 at the top of the Android heap on Rogers (which runs Snapdragon at a full 1GHZ) but nonetheless, as of today, the Liquid E is official.

Another key feature of the device is that it is running Android 2.1! The long-awaited premiere of Android 2.1 on Rogers is here. What does that bring to the table? Considering the Liquid E is mostly a stock Android device, meaning it comes to consumers with little alteration of the standard Android experience, the main features one would notice are the inclusion of Live Wallpapers and voice control for standard OS tasks.

The Acer’s design is fairly unremarkable; neither fat nor thin, it appeals to the same market as the Samsung Galaxy Spica on Rogers. Though this device is much more powerful, and being introduced at the same price range, should be a successful entry into the market for Rogers.

We’ve got a no-contract price of $424.99 and a three-year contract price of $49.99.

Once the phone gets rooted and overclocked, this could be a nice little device to tweak.
