For consumers in the Western Tablet PC news of the earthquake in Japan, the concern and sense of sympathy YAG is amazing and for some people moved to the victims of the earthquake and tsunami aid are made. But more than that we do not have a big impact from the accident. but of course as a producer in the technology sector and the gadget would be very influential.
News says that, component manufacturers are sold out in the edge of the running for a key component. All are the result of the earthquake and the tsunami that occurred some time ago. Port destroyed, production and public facilities were also destroyed, making it very difficult to get to material from certain regions.
The components include MLCC be affected the most used (used in integrated circuits), motherboards, and cups for the touch screen. If the defect later saw PC shipments, resulting tablets and smartphones will be forced to slow down.
This problem comes from the demand for devices such as tablets and smartphones. As big brands continue to market and introduction of new devices, so the demand is increasing. Increased demand with difficulties in the supply chain ultimately led to shortages coupled. Breaking Point in June as the supplier will continue as usual, expected this month.
The manufacturers deny there occur a defect, but this is a tactic to stop the panic and keep prices stable component considered. Companies such as Asus, Acer, Motorola, HTC, Quanta and Apple, of course, believed to be buying as much stock as they can to weather the storm.
The impact on consumers can be doubled. These products are not suddenly received the stock from the shelves on the importance of some outlets will be limited to phase disappear for days at a time. In the long term provider forced to put up prices because if there is no shortage of the component will automatically buy more expensive. In the end the costs will be delivered to end users.
