I don't think anybody has grasped how big the Pegatron deal may be, I quick search of Pegatron and Apple is interesting here is one example;

iPhone 5S or iPhone 6
The iPhone 6 will be manufactured by Pegatron's 40,000 new staff alongside the iPhone 5S or iPhone Light

The iPhone 6 and maybe the iPhone 5S or iPhone Light will be manufactured at the Pegatron factory rather than Foxconn, according to new sources.

Pegatron has recently brought on 40,000 new staff members to produce the next iPhone.

The huge number of new staff suggest that two devices will be produced and speculation suggests they could be the iPhone 6 and iPhone 5S.

IB Times said, “This latest shift in manufacturing on Apple’s part sees it moving the iPhone away from Foxconn, where its relationship has become strained over the past year, while asking iPad mini factory Pegatron to pull double duty. And while the iPhone 6 will not be released until iOS 7 is finished, which Apple says will be in the fall or sooner, the new iPhone factory is ramping up the headcount now.�

The news comes shortly after we reported Foxconn was planning on increasing its staff numbers to produce the iPhone 6 or iPhone 5S. Apple hasn't yet confirmed who will produce the next iDevice.
