"Our sources say Apple asked its suppliers to start working on displays with this resolution for the iPad 3," he said. the analyst, according to the Digital Arts.
IDC forecasts indicate that the iPad should sell 44.6 million units throughout the year, which indicates an absurdly great need for components.
