Comments on: Apple to Manufacture Single 100 Million Gigabyte iPhone? http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/20090409/apple-to-manufacture-single-100-million-gigabyte-iphone/ by John Paczkowski Sun, 12 Feb 2012 04:27:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Uwe Rueckeshaeuser http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/20090409/apple-to-manufacture-single-100-million-gigabyte-iphone/comment-page-1/#comment-6314 Uwe Rueckeshaeuser Thu, 09 Apr 2009 21:21:13 +0000 http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/?p=16316#comment-6314 There is a typo in the article – it is 100 million 8 Gb, not 8 GB chips. There is also no direct relation to iPhones nor device capacity, as any random number of these chips can be combined in one device. So, they could be used for iPhones and iPods having any capacity. They could be used for Macs (faster start-up or saving the system status during sleep or between sessions), they could even be used for USB sticks containing software installations to replace CD/DVD media, or to create special dongles to prevent Snow Leopard from being installed on non-Apple computers, a completely new device... or all of that. The order does not tell anything. There is a typo in the article – it is 100 million 8 Gb, not 8 GB chips.

Maybe some of it is for the new tablet Mac coming in the Fall? Yeah, the one people have predicted is coming for, what, five years?
