Good Luck Getting Your Hands on an iPad 3 at Launch; Supply Shortages May Persist Into Q2
Apple’s highly anticipated iPad 3 will reportedly be in short supply until some time in the second quarter according to a new report. Industry watcher DigiTimes on Thursday cited anonymous sources within Apple’s supply chain in claiming that the high-resolution 2,048 x 1,536-pixel display panels being supplied to Apple by Sharp may be in short supply.
Initial shipments are expected to be limited as a result, and production supposedly won’t be ramped up until some time in the second quarter.
