The phone will use Android 1.6 and Snapdragon can support 3D graphics, making it the first Android handset to do so.

Other specs include a WVGA touchscreen, HSPA connectivity and a 5MP camera that includes standard features such as auto-focus, geo-tagging, ISO and self-timer.

There was not much else revealed but the launch page says the new "Spinlets" app will "allow you to share media directly from the Liquid handset itself."

There is also Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Picasa and Flickr integration right from within the address book.
