iPad 2 Production Starts February, iPhone 5 May


Looks like the iPad 2 and iPhone 5 are right on track.

Monday China's Commercial Times (Google Translate) reported that Apple's manufacturing partners will begin iPad 2 production next month in a "small pilot."
Commercial Times said the number is expected to grow in the second quarter of calendar 2011, and could possibly exceedthe peak seen with the original iPad tablet back in Q4 2010. Apple will reportedly keep Foxconn as its largest manufacturing partner while Pegatron and Apple's other typical suppliers will still play a vital role in the tablet's manufacturing process.
