The Apple iPhone launch has us all up in a tizzy, and we can’t help but let you in on every little tidbit of news regarding the Apple iPhone. It looks like we’re going to see a couple Japanese panel-makers sourcing the multi-touch display panels for the Apple iPhone. Speculation has AU Optronics and Innolux as the two possible main suppliers for the iPhone’s panels, but DigiTimes is reporting that sources have indicated to them that two Japanese companies are likely to be the Apple iPhone multitouch display supplier – with a Taiwanese supplier as a secondary source. The Japanese panel makers have a leg up on Taiwanese fabrication plants, and that may be the edge that gives Japanese suppliers the contract for the Apple iPhone.
The Apple iPhone is also expected to make use of a low-temperature poly-silicon (TLPS) panel – allowing for more flexible circuit designs.
