I'm pretty sure it's in there.
Also this.
Subsequent reports emerging from Taiwan’s Digitimes suggest that supplies of the smaller iPad’s display and backlighting components are suffering “low yield rates”, prompting Apple to heavily revise projected sales of the new device in the quarter up until Christmas.
Word from insiders close to LG and AU Optronics, both of whom supply Apple with panels for the iPad Mini, indicates that the displays just cannot be produced in high enough quantities.
AUO is meant to handle 40 per cent of panels for the iPad Mini. Right now, it’s at just 22 per cent. The result? Apple may miss its 10 million unit sales target by a colossal 4 million. If this report is on the money, it’s nothing short of a disaster for Apple.
