I think that ASYT is in the right business, 300mm systems will surly use automated handlers. If you have been in very many fabs the operators tend to be small, it will be difficult for many to handle the size and weight of 25 300mm wafers. The value associated with the product will make automation a no brainer decision, ASYT should reap the rewards of this transformation. I doubt they are going to be very receptive to a take over as long as they have cash and a good product. This area will develop competition as the revenues increase but being the first guy with the goods is a huge advantage. I hope my reasoning pays off for me as the upturn arrives and 300mm becomes a reality. Everybody is trying to survive the downturn and develop there own new products for the next cycle so I think ASYT will be left alone to prosper.
