100 million 8Gb NAND flash chips?Yes, that's true.This news was reported by the DigiTimes just few days ago.According to DigiTimes, this order will effect a lot to the NAND flash chips market and soar up the NAND flash chips price all of a sudden.
"Apple has reportedly placed orders for 100 million 8Gb NAND flash chips mostly with Samsung Electronics, which is likely to cause a supply shortage, according to sources at downstream suppliers. Nokia and Sony recently also began building their NAND flash inventories, further tightening supply, the sources added."
