I believe last sentence has a typo...
TSMC CEO Morris Chang cited the success as a prime example of successful cooperation between foundries and fabless companies.

I am guessing this does not include the Tegra2 processor build on the ARM Architecture and appearing in many Tablets just now coming to market.
They could double the total output in a few years with the flood of mobile devices that is coming.

makes sense to me. Fabless is a perfectly legit word, at least in silicon valley.

Nope, it's right. Nvidia doesn't fabricate chips, so it is fabless. ARM is the same way. As far as the number though, that would include hundreds of millions of GPUs currently sitting in landfills. I don't think anybody uses a RIVA TNT anymore.
