I came across this on Insanely Great Mac article
Seems like apple sure is taking its time getting the iMac shortage figured out, but at least they have finally taken the necessary steps.
Shipments for the iMac will begin in May with an initial monthly volume of 10,000 units, which could then rise to 30,000 units in the future. Digitimes reports that HannStar and LG Philips are the only two companies supplying LCDs for the new iMac, which is manufactured by Quanta Computer.
If the figures quoted in the article are correct, this figure translates roughly into US$280 per LCD.
