Any rumours on Apple licensing capacity off Intel? Global Foundries (formally the fab division of AMD) might also be a partner in the future given the rumours not too long ago regarding Apple employees around the AMD campus.
Problem is that Intel wants to increase its level of involvement in the mobile space with Atom and Mefield etc platforms. Licensing their fabs to ARM licensees doesn't really help that overall goal. Intel could sell a ton of fab capacity to a lot of players if they wanted to. They don't want to because it's not in their ultimate best interest.
GloFo is interesting in their development of a FD-SOI process (which some argue all silicon has to go to eventually to continue scaling), but publicly known die sizes suggest that TSMC is actually quite denser on a given process than GloFo, Samsung et al. TSMC is really Apple's best option.
