Abstract
This research report presents Taiwanese digital terrestrial STB shipment
volume and value forecast and recent quarter review of shipment volume, value
and ASP, manufacturer volume ranking, and shipment by maker. The report also
provides shipment by function and examines price trends, production locations,
shipment destinations, business types, and customer portfolios. The content of
this report is based on primary data obtained through interviews with digital
terrestrial STB makers. The report finds that the Taiwanese digital
terrestrial STB industry benefited from ATSC converter box demand in the
United States in the first half of 2009, but the industry' s shipment volume is
estimated to see sharp declines in the second half of 2009 following the
completion of the digital switchover in the United States. It is anticipated
that the industry' s shipment value will see slight growth for full year 2009
when compared with full year 2008.
