Blimey. That will annoy a few folks if they launch it this year.

Yikes.  They have not sold out all the iPad 1's yet.  But I think this makes some sense: for the time being it is in Apple's best interest to stay ahead of the competition in tablets.  The iPad2 is nice but I don't see it being able to hold the fort against all the Android and WebOS tablets for a whole year on it's own. This might explain some of the shortages - they don't want to stockpile.

no way.
It'll be ready to ship 12 months after the ipad 2 was.

But the hardware/tech guesses sounds plausible
