There are many rumors out there about how many T-Mobile G1s have sold and how many are expected to sell, but most of these are just people spouting off random numbers.  However, Peter Chou, the co-founder of HTC itself, has finally thrown out his own set of numbers.  In an internet, Chou said he’s expecting HTC to sell over 600,000 G1s in 2008 (i.e., in only a couple of months) and that he’s looking forward to even higher numbers in 2009.  However, like the smart businessman he is, Chou also stated that HTC isn’t basing its entire existence on the G1, so while it’s certainly possible the phone will sell millions, they’re financially prepared for it to be a failure, too.  Yeah, like that will happen!  Who isn’t looking forward to getting their hands on this hot little phone with full keyboard?
