Apple delays launch of PlayBook

Waaaaaait a second! Apple doesn't even MAKE the PlayBook, that's Research In Motion's product, the tablet heir to the BlackBerry. Yes, you're right. But demand for the iPad 2 has been so huge that RIM is having a hard time getting parts for its product. (Sad trombone sound). Specifically, it's all about the touch panels. Suppliers have sold them all to Apple. Apparently this caused PlayBook to slip a month in its planned launch.

Congratulations on cutting this story down so concisely. The story did not differ in length from the paragraph that appeared on igoogle leading me here. You could have made it even shorter if you had not put so many As in Waaaaaait. Seriously though would have appreciated more information on this page.
