We're continuing our detailed coverage of all the bits and pieces dripping from the Worldwide Developers Conference in San Fransisco. As you all might recall, Apple bought a chip company called P.A. Semi not too long ago, a maker of low-power PowerPC chips, fuelling rumours Apple might use them in its own products such as the iPhone and iPod. This has now been confirmed by His Steveness himself.

I believe the SoC that currently powers the iPod is in fact a Samsung part.
Also note that P.A. Semi have no fab of their own, so unless Apple plans on buying up a chip foundry also, they'll still need a manufacturing partner, which would likely remain Samsung.
