iPhone 5 Production Roadmap Still Not in Place?

Apple has not yet set its production roadmap for the iPhone 5 as shipment volumes of the iPhone 4 continue to increase and and suppliers aren't ready yet to shift production lines to a new product, according to DigiTimes.

While acknowledging there should be a roadmap for each generation of products, the sources insisted that touch panel shipments for iPhone 4 have remained steady, and that they have not seen a timetable to stop current production in preparation for the next-generation of iPhone.


DigiTimes sources seem divided on predicted whether Apple will go with a slight modification of the iPhone 4 or will undertake a major overhaul of the device.
