image thumb125 Apple – Toshiba connection. Toshiba pushing the accelerator on Flash Memory chips production

While there are reports of a possible Apple tablet and new iPods coming to the scene by September, sources site that Toshiba has given a boost to its production of  flash memory chips. How are the two related? Well it appears that Toshiba will be providing Apple with the bulk of these chips for the upcoming iPods or whatever it has in store. I mean it sounds pretty useless otherwise. Anyone with a tip on this?
