Acer has been eyeing entry to the smartphone market for a while now along with other major computer makers like Dell. The problem for Dell is that it failed to get any domestic carriers interested in its phones.

DigiTimes reports that Acer is set to launch four smartphones in the second half of 2009 according to its sources. The smartphones will include the A1, C1/E1, F1, and L1. The names aren’t very inspiring but hopefully the phones themselves have more thought put into them.
The most interesting at this point seems to the A1, which will run Android. The other three handsets will run some flavor of Windows Mobile. The devices are reportedly being constructed in Taiwan at Compal Communications and Inventec Appliances.
