iPad 2 Release Date May Be Delayed to June?

Apple shipments of the iPad 2 may have been delayed from April until June due to production bottlenecks at Hon Hai, according to Bloomberg.

The delay arose after Cupertino, California-based Apple made design changes before the Lunar New Year, according to a report by Vincent Chen and Alison Chen, analysts at Yuanta. Jill Tan, an Apple spokeswoman in Hong Kong, declined to comment on the report. Edmund Ding, a spokesman for Hon Hai, didn’t answer calls to his Taiwan and China mobile phones.

"Our checks suggest new issues are being encountered with the new production and it is taking time to resolve them," said Chen in the report. "As a number of Android 3.0 tablets are being launched in April and May, the delay in iPad 2 shipments may give the Android camp a brief window of opportunity."
