Apple deal with TSMC to manufacture the A6 and A7 CPU

According to DigiTimes, one of our favorite rumor sites since they have an above average track record when it comes to getting things right, Apple has just signed a deal with TSMC to manufacture the as yet to be announced A6 and A7 processors that will end up in future generations of iOS products. The rumor goes on the say that the A6 will be built using a 28 nanometer process and that the A7 will be using a 20 nanometer process.

In other words, future Apple chips will be smaller and use up less power, therefore giving you longer battery life. The A5 thats currently in the iPad 2 and will no doubt end up in the next generation iPhone is built on a 45 nanometer process.
