There has been a lot of discussion of the Bloomberg claims and it's not clear where the truth lies. They are normally not given to making inaccurate claims but the rebuttal from Apple et al has been unambiguous and not the mealy mouthed stuff you'd expect from public companies that don't want to fess up but can't risk telling an outright porky. There has also been some speculation that it's deliberate misdirection from govt sources with an ulterior motive. After all, it's not like China is the flavour of the month in the US at present.

I expect we'll never know for sure but my guess is that it's BS. There are some significant technical hurdles to achieving what is claimed.

Cheers,
Rick.
