I thought part of the current discussion was "Well, if Apple is giving Samsung grief over selling the Galaxy Tab, Samsung should make life difficult for Apple component-wise." Say if a part was magically "unavailable" for a week or two.
It's hard to tell who has who over a barrel at the moment. At Apple's volumes, can they change suppliers quickly? Can Samsung afford to piss off Apple just to get the Galaxy Tab back on the market?
You appear to be assuming there are no clauses regarding unforeseen production difficulties, associated supply problems, and penalties in said contract.
