John, As an IDT employee here in the great northwest, I can assure ya that reads eight inch. We are definitely staffing up here and we're using 200mm wafers (and a heck of a lot more than 80 wafers). Eric

Petz,Re:8o wafer....guess they mean 8 inch wafers.The FAB has apx 40,000 sq ft of clean room.Can you guess mfg capacity? in the annual report they suggest that with the new fab IDT has capacity for generate 1.44 billion in revs of course this is kind of a meaningless number without mention of product type.They also own land next to the fab big enough to build another one. Hillsboro is a very good place to have a fab . It has attracted many other fabs and is sort of fab city. charlie
