Apple is targeting 10 million iPad mini shipments for Q4 2012, but they might only reach 6 million due to production delays at AU Optronics. Both AU Optronics and LG Display provide displays for the iPad mini, and LG Display is the exclusive provider of display panels for the new iMacs. Both manufacturers are experiencing mass production issues with their respective displays. For instance, the overall shipment of panels used in the iPad mini from AU Optronics dropped to about 22%, which is down from their original 40% target. As for the new iMacs, LG Display has had to develop a completely new production process for mass producing panels for the new iMacs, and they had limited capacity to begin with. Both the change in the production process and the already limited capacity is delaying shipments. However, Apple has said that the new iMacs will arrive on November 30. [ via DigiTimes]
