Significant increases in Cal-Comp Electronics' shipments to Indian telecom carrier Reliance, and a steady rise in Sony Ericsson orders boosted Taiwan handset shipments sequentially in the third quarter. But on an on-year basis, third-quarter shipments declined because of drops in shipments from BenQ, and decreased orders from Motorola. BenQ had yet to recover from the bankruptcy of its subsidiary BenQ Mobile, while Motorola's performance remained weak.
