>what do you know about this IPO [CHRT]. not much as i'm not interested, but it does tell me that business at the foundries must be very good. on the comm IC side, both fabless chippies Broadcom and PMC-Sierra use Chartered (along with TSMC), as well as Conexant. (the former two use Chartered for CMOS.) as usual, TDozer will both better answer this question, but what with the comm ICs suppliers, optical component makers and front-office guys each firing on all cylinders, my guess is that they just jetted off to sun their haunches on st. barts. (not a peep from them lately.) then again, perhaps they're at today's "ticker"-tape parade? (read: the yanks) feebly attempting to draw them out o' hiding, -chris.
