One guy asked useful accounting questions, nothing else seemed worth asking. (Though I'm not an accountant, so what do I know? :)

Fab space is my big-time question. I don't think TSMC is ready for full-run .18 chips, so the next part will probably still be .25, which appears to be maxed out in the fabs.

I really don't understand why this wouldn't have been at the top of any analysts list, unless they already know the answer.

I don't think STB will have problems keeping up with board production. Retail demand will probably slack off significantly and JIT demand from OEM's means you don't have to prebuild a lot of boards.
