LG CEO Kwon Young-Soo has admitted to reporters that it can’t stay ahead of the game in producing enough iPad 9.7″ IPS screens. It’s having great difficulty in keeping up with production runs and has suggested to Apple that it may want to think about delaying more international rollouts due to tight component supplies and strong international demand. Even if LG were to increase production capacity there would he shortages for 2011.
This doesn’t bode well, especially seeing LG are also the screen supplier for the new iPhone 4. Let’s hope that Apple can still produce enough iPads even if it has to go to other suppliers for screens.
