The next generation of the iPad could come in February, according to an analyst report based on information fro Apple Inc's Asian supply chain. Citigroup analyst Richard Gardner wrote Thursday morning that the new version of the tablet will also come with the company's "retina" display.
"Current iPad builds are up sequentially in (the current quarter) thanks to the February launch of a new iPad with double the screen resolution of the current model. Several sources have confirmed the timing of this launch and there do not appear to be any significant technical hurdles remaining," Gardner wrote.
Gardner wrote that build rates for the current quarter are in the 12 million to 13 million range. The the most recent quarter Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) sold 11.1 million iPad2s, up 166 percent jump from the year before.
