PabloSandoval48 writes "Apple's A4 processor is heavily influenced by Apple's long-established relationship with Samsung and represents an evolution rather than a revolution in circuit design. A team of experts takes a look at the evidence on A4 in an attempt to determine its origins and the influence of recent Apple acquisitions in the area of chip design."

    FTA:

    What we found was an APL0398 chip, presumably the next-generation processor from the APL0298 that we found in the iPhone 3GS.
