A new rumor has sprung up and this one is about Apple and their A6 chip. It seems that the rumors are indicating that Apple is currently experimenting with plans to make their A6 chip through TSMC. While Apple has traditionally gone to Samsung for the manufacturing of their chips, the recent legal battles may force Apple to start reducing their dependence on the Korean company. Not much is known about the A6 chip although some are speculating that it might be of the quad-core variety, which seems to make sense, especially with NVidia's Tegra-3 "Kal-El" SOC looking to be present in future Android devices.
Ubergizmo, TSMC to start building Apple's A6 chips?
