Apple creates a shortage of touch panels to intervene its competitors.?

When a company has enough cash, it can make life difficult for competitors, bribing and pressuring customers, as did Intel, pushing their processors, or by buying up key components, production of which cannot be quickly increased, as does Apple. Recall the recently emerged information that Apple «invests in the purchase of strategic components of 7,8 billion dollars, and previously leaked to the press about infusion of 3.9 billion dollars in the production of LCD panels.
At one time, Apple has managed to secure an advantage to their players MP3, buying bulks of flash memory. According to DigiTimes, the company decided to repeat the trick the ears on the tablet PC market. At this time they try to make touchpads a deficit, which is the key component to every tablet PC. According to reports, Apple has been able to reserve 60% of the total world production of these products, as a result other companies faced lack of supply.

 
What effect this will have on consumers?

According to the manufacturers of components are no longer able to ship as much product
as they have been ordered. Because of the shortage of spare parts. Especially the difficulty experienced second-tier suppliers, who have to compete for parts with HP, RIM, Motorola, HTC, Samsung, LG and Dell, while they themselves are unable to obtain sufficient number of panels. Apple, is expected to be able to fully meet demand for its iPad tablet this year.

Fujitsu Stylistic Q550 is out..

It’s a pity that using Windows 7 on a tablet has a number of critical issues. Tablets in my view, as a new but already strong branch of computer form-factors, have more potential than smartphone-derived OSes allow them to embody. When it comes to a more common desktop-like computing experience, a tablet needs a Windows version which is now here yet, the 7 is quite hard to use cramped in 10-inch multitouch display. But Fujitsu releases one tomorrow anyway. It is, of course, the Stylistic Q550.
On hardware side Fujitsu Stylistic Q550 is a very capable tablet. It is based on Intel Oak Trail platform, together with flash memory this duet should run Windows 7 blazingly fast. Other notable features pertain to tablet’s “business” orientation and mainly include data protection options like hardware encryption and antitheft protection.
Fujitsu Stylistic Q550 will reportedly go no sale in Europe tomorrow for price equivalent of $ 960.
