According to a source familiar with Apple’s product distribution channels, the iPad 2 WiFi + 3G is constrained. Supplies of the iPad 2 3G are constrained across various distribution channels, these sort of  constraints often indicate that a new device is in the pipeline and the release is near. Apple is expected to announce the iPad 3 sometime in March.

 According to a source familiar with Apple’s product distribution channels, the iPad 2 WiFi + 3G is constrained. Supply shortages span beyond Apple’s own distribution channels, though, as major retailers are reporting “out of stock” status for the 3G iPad 2. This includes, but is likely not limited to, Carphone Warehouse and Orange in the United Kingdom. Carphone Warehouse is reporting shortges of five out of six of their 3G iPad 3 models (everything but the black 64GB unit), and Orange UK is reporting shortages of half of the 3G iPad 2 SKUs: both 32GB models and the white 64GB unit.
