Apple A4 design team quits Apple. Don't expect faster iPads/iPhones in the future...

I hope they've reengineered their stuff because I'm sure Apple owns all of the IP from their PA Semi days.

I'm dubious. Apple undoubtedly owns everything that they've done and probably stuff that they want to do as well.

There was another rumor somewhere that the A4 wasn't designed by the PA Semi group but by Apple's existing chip team.

I thought that it was a combination of both.

I doubt the loss of PA Semi's sales manager will greatly affect the future of the A4. You've read a much more dramatic situation into that story than it actually describes.

If it's really the sales manager leaving, well that's one job that's been made utterly redundant - it's not like Apple will be marketing their stuff to anybody else.

The specific titles given for people who have left Apple are "a director" and "vice president responsible for sales and business development." It's probable there are a couple of others, but nothing in the article even remotely suggests a mass walkout like the thread subject does. It's just saying that some former PA Semi people are going to start a server hardware company.
