Ian, foundries used to have their own wafer plants (and I believe that Toshiba still does), but they have moved away from that since they require heavy capital for fabs, on which the ROI is better than on raw wafer making, thus TXN sold their wafer making to MEMC few years back. I doubt this trend will reverse.
