Sometimes, you're just so darn full of pride you can get lost in the moment. We assume that's what [Acer][3]'s done, having revealed possibly its trump handset weeks before the global mobile event, MWC, even starts. Its CloudMobile has won the [iF design award][4] for 2012, and the company just wanted everyone to know. So what can we expect to see later this month? Well, the phone will pack a 4.3-inch high-definition touchscreen, with a Dolby-branded speaker plate on the back, all wrapped in a sub-10mm "Sleeve DNA" contoured shell. Expect the device to be tightly integrated with Acer's cloud technology -- we grabbed a [hands-on][5] with this just last month -- using peer-to-peer connectivity to sync pictures, music and other files, while also offering up printer functionality. _Pocket-Lint_ believes we'll see the device running Android 4.0 on arrival -- it's currently posited for a Q3 release. We'll be scouring the show floor for it when Mobile World Congress kicks off in earnest.
