Linfinity Microelectronics unit has supplied a breakthrough chip to power color display lamps in the next-generation wireless Color Palm

Here is a link to the news story:
quicken.com

And here is a link to the device itself (apparently the same device mentioned in the news story):
microsemi.com

As you can see from the device description, it is used to power a cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL). This would have no relationship to CREE's LED business, unless some company somewhere is considering using LEDs for color computer display backlighting, which I doubt.
