Quote:
Part of the falloff in demand for the 9.7-inch panel is due to Apple. There was some letup in the purchase of displays for the current iPad as Apple gets ready to launch the next-generation iPad, according to Digitimes.
Strong demand from Apple, however, should resume soon, according to the report. The new iPad is expected in the March-June time frame.

There are rumors, too, that in response to the 7" display, Apple may launch a mini Ipad , but I for one doubt it.
