Flash Based Apple Laptops... Again
Reuters reports on recent predictions made by Analyst Shaw Wu.
Wu revivies rumors that Apple will be incoporating Flash memory into upcoming notebook computers.
The maker of the popular iPod music player and Macintosh computers hopes to introduce so-called flash memory in small computers known as subnotebooks in the second half of 2007
Advantages of the use of Flash memory would be longer battery lives and shorter startup times. According to Wu, Apple is waiting for flash memory prices to decline but are otherwise ready to launch.
Rumors of an upcoming flash based subnotebook have been circulating for months. Another analyst (Benjamin Reitzes) mentioned this possibility back in June 2006.
