Apple Chief Operating Officer Tim Cook is rumored to have visited South Korea last week to talk with executives from Samsung about switching to an AMOLED display for the third-generation iPad.



From Apple Insider:
The report claims that Apple offered Samsung "an advance" for active-matrix organic light-emitting diode displays to guarantee capacity. Currently, the iPad 2 employs an IPS LCD display, the same screen that was used in the first-generation iPad.

The report claims Samsung's Super AMOLED displays offer brighter screens, less sunlight reflection and reduced power consumption. It also claimed that the new screens have a "significant advantage" over existing traditional LCD displays.
