Peter,

Sandisk remains very well positioned but because of concentrated positions of this company's stock in the hands of a few major players, it is extremely volatile as they have been able to get in and out for short-term gains and disrupting the kind of stock price performance we are seeing in the case of AAPL.

Sandisk has access to more than enough non-captive supply they need but as they increase those purchases beyond 30-40% it lowers their margins and they want to maintain their operating margins north of 20% rain or shine for now. Nothing will please the street but I will be happy as long as demand and supply are relatively balanced. +/-2-6% should be okay because of the price elasticity in the nand markets.
