display Supplies of the high-resolution display panels expected in the next ipad could be tight, according to a source and an Asia-based report.
Will the upcoming iPad 3's 2048x1536 display be available in the volumes that Apple typically needs on the day of announcement? The possibility that it might not is emerging as a concern.
"Samsung is having some difficulty supplying the panels and there's a short delay," a source, who has contacts at display makers in Asia, told CNET.
"Keep in mind that there can be announcement on the 7th but the ship date might come later," this person said.
Such shortages could widen the delay between the announcement of the product and its release. Historically, Apple has put new products on sale days or weeks after being announced. Buyers are put on wait lists in the case of backlog, as has been the case with the release of the first two iPads
