Apple Increases Build Rates For iPads

Worried about iPad supplies, now that the word is out that Best Buy stores will only have 15 iPads each? There is some good news for you, as reports from Morgan Stanley’s chief Apple watcher, Katy Huberty, indicate that Apple has asked its iPad suppliers to increase the build rates. Suppliers are now forecasting shipments of 8-10 million iPads in 2010, which is a nice bump from the initial 5 million odd. Suppliers are expected to ship 2.5 million iPads in the first three months alone. So if you’re an iPad believer, this is certainly good news, as it probably means that the demand for the iPad is good, and the supply is on its way.
