Palm Pre being Assembled by CMCS

DigiTimes is reporting that the honored ODM for the Palm Pre will be Chi Mei Communication Systems. They're not well-know like the other Tawiness based OEM out there like HTC and Inventec. Best-know for their handsets for Motorola. Since 2005, CMCS has been part of Foxconn, interestingly enough the ones behind th production of reported 800,000 iPhones per week. The question is, could they keep up production with the demand for the Pre? We'll find out "soon".
Also reported that, "Shipments expected to begin in March at the earliest, indicated the sources." I doubt we'll see the Pre in March, more like April if they are getting close to release it to the Palm Pre consumers. Let's cross out fingers...
