Paul,

Re: "I wonder who is supplying flash for the high end products..."

Intel of course !!!


Think again. Intel's flash is for the low end stuff - meaning lower quality.

Here is where they get flash for their high end products: amd.com

---------------------------------------------------------
SUNNYVALE, CA-- December 19, 2000--AMD today announced a significant volume increase to its Flash memory supply agreement with Cisco Systems. Under the amended three-year agreement, AMD will allocate Cisco more than twice the Flash memory devices than were previously committed. The Flash memory devices will be used to store sophisticated code and data for Cisco's networking systems.

"We are honored and pleased to expand our partnership with Cisco, the world's leading internetworking company," said Walid Maghribi, group vice president of AMD's Memory Group. "Major Flash memory users such as Cisco recognize the importance of a consistent supply of advanced Flash memory devices, and the strategic value of aligning with AMD to ensure access to the high quality products they need. We remain committed to offering our customers advanced products with the highest levels of service."

AMD announced a Flash memory supply agreement with Cisco in March and was recently awarded the 'Cisco President's Customer Satisfaction Award.'
