Acer, the personal computer firm who purchased E-Ten a little over a year ago, has set some ambitious targets for themselves according to an internal estimate that was leaked to Digitimes. By the end of this year Acer hopes to ship between 400,000 and 500,000 smartphones, while in 2010 they think they can do better with 1.5 to 2 million units. If they pump out attractive Android devices, like the A1, then there is nothing stopping them, but if they stick to Windows Mobile … the future really isn’t so certain. The source who leaked the internal estimate also says that Acer has some deals lined up with Taiwanese operator Far EasTone Telecommunications, CSL of Hong Kong, SFR and Bouygues of France, Wind of Italy, and a yet to be determined American operator in 2010. Hey Acer, how about making a 1700 MHz 3G device for T-Mobile? They’re taking a lot of risks, so signing a company with no previous history of US sales should be right up their alley.
