I stopped at the CMK booth at JPCA. When I asked about this investment,
the booth attendant was pretty vague (they did find an attendant who spoke
English for me). While some of my US contacts say this investment is
already under way (either at their Japan or at their China facilities),
the booth attendant would only say the technology is in "the develpment
phase". I have CMK literature from the show definitely showing embedded
component technology.
