Small Taiwan DVD Chip Firm to Take on Phone Giants
A small Taiwanese firm that makes chips for DVD players has decided to diversify by jumping into the mobile phone chip making market. They see the market as being so large that they can easily snap up some (if just a little) marketshare from companies like Texas Instruments and Motorola. They're hoping to leverage their location to get deals with Taiwanese phone manufacturers, to push out the American companies.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
