<\/a><\/div>\nApple has reportedly signed up with a new manufacturer in China<\/a> to help produce the next generation of the iPhone — Pegatron will be joining Foxconn in putting together parts for Apple’s next handheld unit, we hear courtesy of the always talkative “industry sources.” The company has been rumored to be working with Apple before, when it was suggested that they’d be working on a smaller version of the iPhone<\/a> designed to work on Verizon’s CDMA network. Officially, Pegatron hasn’t confirmed any agreement with Apple, but they have said that they plan to substantially increase their output in 2010.<\/p>\n And this might just be part of a good 2010 for Pegatron — the company is also working on parts for Microsoft’s Natal controller, rumored to be releasing this coming holiday season. As for what they’ll be making for Apple, we’ll have to wait and see what gets announced. It’s almost a certainty that we’ll see a new iPhone model sometime this year, but as to what that model will do (and whether it’ll be CDMA enabled or otherwise), it’s all just rumors so far.<\/p>\n [via Apple Insider<\/a>]<\/p>\n TUAW<\/a>Report: Apple signs new iPhone manufacturer, rumored to work on CDMA iPhone<\/a> originally appeared on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)<\/a> on Thu, 04 Feb 2010 11:30:00 EST.
