With Sony increasing its shipments goal for Bravia LCD TVs this year, the company is expected to expand outsourcing of LCD TVs to Wistron, while Foxconn Electronics (Hon Hai Precision Industry) and Qisda will have a chance to join the company's OEM partner list, according to sources at TV makers.
However, due to the fact that Sony still owns a large production capacity in Europe, the orders to Taiwan makers will mainly be to supply markets in Asia, noted the sources.
Sony's Bravia LCD TV shipments surpassed 10 million units in 2007, and the company aims to ship over 15 million units in 2008, according to previous reports.
