"Six reasons why the iPhone will soon have processors built by Intel:

1. Apple (AAPL) needs to have the best technology to continue to provide cutting edge products and to be able to charge the premium it has charged in the past.

2. Intel (INTC) needs to put its processors in smartphones. The smartphone market is growing rapidly.

3. Intel will make more money by building the iPhone processor than not.

4. Intel will soon have excess capacity in its fabs (semiconductor chip factories).

5. Apple will pay less per processor buying from Intel, compared to its current supplier Samsung (SSNLF.PK), or its other alternative TSMC (TSM). "

Wondering if we still have contacts at Intel, and wishing we had a really big market like an Apple/Intel connection. ORY
