Although Compal Electronics' notebook ODM volume has not shown as much growth as previously expected, the boost coming from Dell's E series netbook shipments may help the company achieve its annual shipments goal of 32 million units in 2008, according to sources in the notebook industry.
Dell's 8.9-inch E series netbook is expected to provide Compal with monthly shipments of around 250,000 units, while the 10-inch model, which is scheduled to be launched in October, is expected to have monthly shipments of around 400,000-450,000 units.
