Smart batteries and Acer: list of affected models needed

[Karol Kozimor <kkozimor-/oHP+XAKPwnYtjvyW6yDsg@public.gmane.org>]

Hi,
It's likely that I'll get my employer's backing for writing the smart
battery driver. However, I need the hardware to begin with, and since Acer
Poland is playing hard to get, I need a possibly complete list of all Acer
laptops affected in case they have at least one of them to spare for a
month or two. Here's those I know of already:
Travelmate 4001WLMi (being phased out, they won't let us have it)
Travelmate 8005LMi (supposedly the same as above)
Travelmate 4501WCi
Travelmate 292 (Extensa 2920) (AFAIK phased out)
Extensa 3001 (N/A)

I'm not sure how much longer we'll be able to bug Acer, so I need a couple
of models that are 100% sure to contain a smart battery. I'd be a shame to
finally manage to get a notebook only to send it back just after.

Alternatively, I'd appreciate a contact address to one of Acer's engineers
or anyone capable of providing any useful information.
Best regards,
