Re: Samsung controllers. I wonder if this means that Samsung will no longer need Lexar's controller technology. Eventually all the main patents on flash memory will expire, at which point it looks like Samsung will entrench its position as the largest supplier of NAND flash memory. I don't know where this leaves SanDisk, but for the moment SanDisk has some useful, profitable IP.
