According to [2] Reuters, Intel is likely to move into contract manufacturing business, which suggests that Apple could become its future customer with chips for the iPad and iPhone, thus reducing its reliance on Samsung as a supplier. Reportedly, last year Intel and Apple executives discussed the issue, but no agreement has been concluded.

The growing trend towards mobile devices and away from PC continues to threaten Intel’s business, which apparently prompts the company to more seriously consider acting as a foundry for chip designs from other companies. Reuters said:

“Sunit Rikhi, vice president and general manager of Intel custom foundry, told Reuters last week his group is ready to take on a potential large, unidentified mobile customer, although he declined to discuss Apple specifically”.
