Apple Considering Dual-LED Light Bars for Next Gen iPad

According to href="http://www.digitimes.com/news/a20111107PD204.html">DigiTimes, Apple is considering two alternative backlight solutions for its next generation iPad. Speculation that Apple will move to a higher resolution display would necessitate implementing a dual-LED backlight as compared to the single backlight used in the current iPad 2. The options range from using two LED bars or simply adding an LED to a single bar.

The sources claim Apple is leaning towards the dual-bar BLU, in part due to the manufacturers solving issues related to heat dissipation and battery consumption.
