Doesn't Apple have a history of successfully using/inventing new components? The unibody aluminium, the original retina display, glass trackpads..even the "hidden" LED on Macbooks. The only major supply failure that I'm aware of is the white iPhone.
Also, Apple says they'll have enough screen for 12-15 million devices this quarter, and claim there's no supply issue at all. [1]
That aside, shortage isn't bad for in-demand items. It just causes more hype. A year after the Wii shortage, they were still one of the hotest electronic devices you could get your hands on.
