"We've heard many comments from our OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and customers that they would like to provide the ease of USB 'plug and play' in their portable designs," stated Jim McCaffrey, VP Sales and Marketing for Mitsumi Electronics. "But until now, the size drawbacks of the existing USB components has severely limited that option on most products. Mitsumi's `Mini USB' line of connector components really removes those dimensional barriers, and we expect to see a great deal of new USB design-in activity as a result," McCaffrey concluded. Mass production of the "Mini USB" has already begun and samples of both the connectors and plugs, as well as adapters for current USB devices, will be available by March 26.
