I think it means WDC won't wait for rdrt, apm to get GMR heads, but I doubt there is any exclusivity implied. Its my impression that
this is not for the mass market but for high end, there's no mention of IBM as supplier for plain 'ol MR heads. Being a competing disk drive maker, I doubt WDC would become dependent on IBM as only head source.
