Shuttle up for sale - report

TAIWANESE wire Digitimes claims that both Acer and ECS have designs on small PC maker Shuttle.

It names both ECS and Acer as potential buyers of the firm, which has made its name by selling dinky little boxes that don't take up much room and can be carted around.

The wire is discounting ECS as a potential buyer because it is still attempting to digest Uniwill, which it bought from Tatung last year.

And Acer is keeping tight lipped about the speculation although it did say earlier this year it was considering one or two acquisitions. More here. µ
