Apple could be top mobile processor company by year’s end

Apple may become the world’s largest mobile processor company by the end of the year, according to a study due to be released by In-Stat later this week as reported by “InfoWorld” (http://macte.ch/GDh4g).

Apple was the world’s second largest mobile processor company behind Intel in 2011, according to In-Stat. If that trend holds and Apple’s iPhone and iPad shipments continue to grow at an unprecedented pace, Apple will likely overtake Intel as the world’s largest mobile processor company by the end of this year, notes “InfoWorld.”
