Summary Box: Apple says first iPad tablet to go on sale April 3 in the US, a slight delay
By APFriday, March 5, 2010
Summary Box: Apple iPad launch slightly delayed
DELAYED GRATIFICATION: Apple’s iPad tablet computer is due to hit U.S. stores April 3 and international markets later in April. Originally Apple had said the launch would begin in late March.
REASON UNCLEAR: Apple wouldn’t say why the tablet is coming out later. But Canaccord Adams analyst Peter Misek believes an Apple supplier is unable to meet production demands.
ONE MORE THING: Investors weren’t fazed. Some might have been happy to see the delay wasn’t longer. Apple shares hit an all-time high in trading Friday.
