Gemtek Technologies - Market analysts claim WLAN routers for Wii to ship 2007  - Image 1 


According to certain market sources in Taiwan, Taiwanese business wireless solutions mogul Gemtek Technology is expected to be shipping more WLAN routers with the Nintendo Wii brand. There are estimates that the WLAN router volume shipping would reach 50,000 units by the second half of 2007.

Already having provided two million units of WLAN modules for the Nintendo Wii, Gemtek has been eyed to have stepped up their shipping to 100,000 units of WLAN modules recently. The company shipped 1.2 million units in contrast back in 2006. Gemtek apparently did not confirm nor deny the report, refusing to make any comment on the grounds of client confidentiality.

Business analysts in the market and in the region expect the Gemtek Technology to post total revenues of around NT$ 4.5 billion to NT$ 4.7 billion (US$ 136.26 million to US$ 142.316 million) by the second quarter of fiscal year 2007. Analysts point out that if all goes to plan, it should bring up the company's revenues up to NT$ 9 billion (US$ 272.52 million) by the first half of the year.
