they can't make chips fast enough for customers Thanks, yes, I noticed that:
| From: Lahcim Leinad | 4/19/2012 7:36:30 AM | | of 131371 | | | BBC News - Qualcomm warns of smartphone Snapdragon chip shortage
Qualcomm said that the third-party factories to which it subcontracts the manufacture of the "28 nanometre" chips would not be able to create enough supply until the end of the year.
The news will impact Android and Windows-based phone makers who had planned to use the products.
"Looking forward, this will impact shipments of mass-market smartphones as firms re-engineer their devices, but having said that, I think the industry should not take too long to catch up," said Malik Saadi, principal analyst at Informa Telecoms.
