Friday, 23 May 2008 Apple boosts flash memory orders for iPhone
Apple has placed large orders for high-capacity flash memory with Samsung
Apple has begun laying in stocks of flash memory, boosting the order books for June and July.
DigiTimes reports Apple to have placed substantial orders for high-capacity flash memory with Samsung. However, the report also suggests that demand hasn’t picked up elsewhere, unlike in previous periods of peak Apple demand, in which other industry players have also placed large flash orders.
Apple’s likely to be piling up flash memory stocks in anticipation of high demand for its next-generation iPhone, and to prepare for a summer push for the other flash-using products it has in its quiver: iPod touch, iPod nano, iPod shuffle and some BTO models of MacBook Air.
The report explains that the flash memory market remains weak.
