Pegatron is expected to ship 12-15 million CDMA iPhones in 2011

Monica Chen, Taipei; Joseph Tsai, DIGITIMES [Tuesday 18 January 2011]
Taiwan-based notebook maker Pegatron Technology has recently started shipping its Apple CDMA iPhones orders with total volume is estimated to be around 12-15 million units in 2011, helping to cover the company's notebook manufacturing business, which has recently suffered loss of orders, according to sources from upstream component makers.

Since the company was still in the process of reorganize in 2010 after spin-off from Asustek Computer, while new orders from notebook vendors such as Acer were still limited, Pegatron saw its 2010 revenues dropped 8.1% on year to only NT$424.84 billion (US$14.64 billion), the sources noted.

Pegatron originally only forecasted internally to ship about 10 million CDMA iPhones in 2011 , but as demand continues to stay strong, the company has recently increased its internal shipment forecast to 12-15 million units, the sources added.
