Oppenheimer analyst Yair Reiner is citing “checks” into Apple’s supply chain that indicate production of the purported tablet will begin to ramp up in February with a March or April launch. He goes on to say that Apple will churn out 1 million tablets per month. Despite previous rumors that the tablet would have an OLED screen, Reiner claims that the device will have a 10.1-inch multi-touch LCD display.
