Misek believes that Sharp has started to produce high-resolution display panel for the latest generation iPad began two weeks ago, and Sharp will also make the display panel for the iPhone 5.
"We also believe that Apple and Sharp have jointly modify IGZO technology (indium, gallium, zinc) to reach 330 dpi, which is sufficient for HD displays and will not use IPS technology or dual-bar include LED backlighting.

"
