Japanese blog Mac Otakara has purchased some of the early iPad 3 parts that have been circulating at online retailers. These parts come from TVC-Mall which also stocked early iPhone 4S parts in the months before its launch. (via Electronista)
The parts are slightly different than the iPad 2 versions of the same parts, but are otherwise unrevealing.
We track parts supplies of upcoming Apple products as it is typically a sign that Apple has begun or is close to manufacturing their new devices. Parts leaks in the past have accurately predicted features of new devices, though these particular internal parts aren't particularly revealing. Cases and device enclosures are typically the most interesting of the early supplier leaks.

This is not an original thought (I read it elsewhere on the forum) but Apple should not release (or even announce) the new ones until 3 months after Christmas, or next Christmas sales will suffer the Osborne effect. I bought my iPad 1 around Christmas last year (knowing full well the 2 was around the corner), by the time iPad 2 was announced on March 2 and sold March 11 I felt I'd had the benefit of it long enough that I had not been "cheated." If you announce a new one in January, lots of new owners will feel ripped off (rightly or wrongly, of course).
