Foxconn/Sharp Merger

Looks like Foxconn the connector maker (and the maker of crappy motherboard). has bought out Sharp.

Yup, first purchase like this of a major Japanese technology company. It is a really big deal.

Foxconn is Taiwanese for those wondering. They are famously the assemblers of the Apple iPhone. But on their own, Foxconn is one of the largest technology manufacturers out there.
