re: Shift Some Chipmaking to China

==========

"..China's government plans to establish the country as a major semiconductor manufacturer.."

They won't do it manufacturing GSMGPRSEDGE chipsets....

"..We are talking with possible companies who will set up manufacturing capability here in China, Jacobs told reporters in Beijing. When that's available, we will certainly make use of it.."

==========

"..shift some production to plants in China owned by companies such as Motorola.."

"..Shougang Group Corp., a steelmaker, said it will sign a $800 million agreement with a foreign chipmaker to produce semiconductors in China, according to the state-run China Daily newspaper.."

Screw MOT... the key is to build China's manufacturing base.
