Supply chain hints 20% climb in Q1 FY2010 iPhone 3GS sales

October 27th, 2009 admin

Fresh from helping create a shortage of flash memory components, Apple seems set to create yet another shortage, this time reducing one supplier’s stock of image sensors, as used in the iPhone and iPod nano cameras. While news that strong seasonal demand from Apple will hit supplies from OmniVision of these image sensors is bound to spark another hubbub of expectation Apple may field cameras inside the iPod touch (we don’t anticipate this until after Christmas), it seems strong iPhone sales are culprit. With all those iPhones churning out, and now with distribution in China and through multiple carriers in formerly exclusive countries such as the UK, Apple execs are clearly working to high demand projections
