Samsung investigated for giving Apple cheap chip prices

In light of recent and not-so-recent news, Samsung is now officially being investigated by South Korea's Fair Trade Commission (rumors were reported earlier by our pals at Engadget). Reuters notes that the investigation may not even cause the tiniest of speed bumps for Samsung's overall business outloook.

Samsung is not the only company implicated in Apple's latest chip memory deal. This latest hardware arrangement is massive in price and lasts through 2010. Rumors have begun to fly that perhaps the chips are not just for iPod-like devices, but perhaps for zero boot time computers. I'm hoping the chips are destined for a newton-esque handheld.
