Implication in a kickback scandal should not hurt Pegatron's OEM deals with Apple, the Taiwanese manufacturer suggests. The subsidiary named in the case, Kaedar Electronics, was only acquired in 2008 -- after alleged crimes -- and is not involved in its parent's supply chain for iPod and iPhone products, according to Pegatron. A spokesman earlier stated that Kaedar has been responsible for supplying iPod packaging for several years.
