Apple cuts memory chip order to Samsung for new iPhone

Samsung has been a core supplier of Apple, producing micro processors, flat screens and memory chips for the iPhone, iPad and iPod.
According to sources Apple has been cutting its orders from Samsung as it tries to diversify its lines of supply for memory chips, although Samsung remains on the list of initial suppliers for the first batch of the new iPhone
A source told Reuters: "Samsung is still in the list of initial memory chip suppliers (for new iPhones). But Apple orders have been trending down and Samsung is making up for the reduced order from others, notably Samsung's handset business."
