Digitimes are reporting that we can generally expect the second version of the iPad 2 in April of next year.
That’s a long way off for a few of you who are probably ready to jump in.
The sources pointed out that the iPad 2 will ship as soon as the end of February in 2011. Apple originally planned to start mass production in January, but because the device’s firmware is currently still in testing, Apple has been postponing the schedule.
Since Foxconn’s new plants in Chengdu are still in pilot production, iPad 2 will be mainly supplied by its Shenzhen plants, while the company’s upstream component partners have all been notified of the shipments schedule.
I know that I can wait; I think.
Is it on your wishlist for this Christmas? Should you take that off so as to wait for v2?
