DigiTimes reports that the mass production of the three versions will start in the latter half January 2011. Since the current iPad shipments are mostly of 3G models, Apple aims to offer more wireless connectivity solutions with iPad 2.

It is estimated that the production of iPad will stop after January and the iPad 2 is expected to launch by end of first quarter or start of the second. iPad 2, when launched, is speculated to ship about 40 million units translating to 65-75 percent of global tablet market.
