**Intel preps plastic memory production plan.**

Intel Corp is accelerating the development of polymer-based memory and preparing to move into production with an alternative to flash memory that will be 10% of the price of its silicon equivalent and has vastly greater storage potential, Brian White writes.

It is taking out production licenses for what are described as "possible Intel products" in a move that will send shivers down the spine of those with billions invested in silicon-based storage technology.


Is this stuff for real?

Tony - Re: "Motorola said the semiconductor unit would cut 6,000 jobs in 2002, resulting in a total unit work force of 24,000 compared with 34,000 at the beginning of 2001. "

Remember when Motorola and TI were numbers 1 and 2 - and Intel wasn't even in the top 20 semiconductor manufacturers?

This "memory" must be fuel for the AMDroid fantasy engine !

Tony Viola. Re: "Motorola shutting down four chip facilities"

What implications does this action have for Intel? Are the chips from these plants mostly for cell phones?

They can't be all making the much vaunted Power PC chips for Apple and IBM.
