Samsung wins PortalPlayer's old contract
Well, that
didn't take long. Just seven days after Apple announced that they wouldn't be buying iPod media chips from
PortalPlayer anymore, Samsung
has been identified as the succeeding manufacturer. Presumably, the chips that Samsung has been hired to produce will
power future iPod nanos with increased capacity. Congratulations, Samsung...now get to it.[Via Engadget]

I know this is picking nits and all, but Apple didn't announce they were changing, portalplayer did. The engadget article even mentions this.

Jer,
Samsung announced they won the contract. This isn't a rumor dude.
I'm wondering what new functionality we'll see from Samsung.
