Hitachi to Stop Manufacturing HDs?

Hitachi might stop manufacturing HDs as well as TV if both divisions are not being profitable in a near future.
If we do not really care about TV, not having Hitachi among leading HD manufacturers will simply be a revolution. Hitachi had acquired IBM HD division some years ago, and has always been innovating while providing excellent performance/price ratio for consumer-oriented HD. A good example is the current problem to find the excellent Hitachi Travel Star 2.5" 160GB in shops. All samples are flying away from the shelves as soon as they arrive.
Hitachi should take its final decision in one year.
