Acer: Ultra-thin notebook proportion to reach 20%

From Digitimes -

Acer expects CULV-based ultra-thin notebooks will account for around 20% of its total notebook shipments in the future as consumer reaction are mostly positive. However, shortages of LED backlight panels and DRAM modules are increasing component costs and impacting gross margins. The company has already shipped around 2,000 ultra-thins in Taiwan since May and is currently completely sold out but it plans to increase monthly shipments to 5,000 units by the end of the month, and will continue to raise volumes beyond June.
