Apple Starts Production of Thinner, Lighter IPad, WSJ Reports

Apple Inc. started producing an updated version of its iPad device, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing unidentified people familiar with the matter.

The new version is thinner, lighter, has more memory and uses faster chips than its predecessor, the newspaper said. It also has a front-facing camera that would enable videoconferencing, the Journal said. The device’s screen resolution is similar.

Verizon Wireless and AT&T Inc. will sell the new iPad, the Journal said. Apple declined to comment, the newspaper said.
