Pegatron Lands Small Volume of iPad 3 Orders?

Pegatron Technology has reportedly landed a small volume of orders for the next generation iPad which will be released in March, according to a DigiTimes report.

The site reiterates its claim of an 'iPad 4' which will launch in October and says Pegatron will see a significant increase in orders for that device. The 'iPad 4' will supposedly launch with an initial volume of 7-10 million units.


The sources pointed out that Apple will also start changing its outsourcing strategy and will have Pegatron primarily focus on production of the iPad series products with production of the iPhone series products as an auxiliary in 2013, while the strategy for Foxconn Electronics (Hon Hai Precision Industry) is vice versa.

DigiTimes' report of an iPad 4 in October has been called 'nonsense' by popular blogger John Gruber from Daring Fireball.
