I used to work in at a Medical Equipment MFG as a Quality Engineering Tech. We used many different manufactures for different parts. Usually 1 mfg will have a lead time of 2 weeks and the other 3 weeks. While we had our preference as to which we went with we always had a backup for the in a pinch situations. Usually less lead time the more $$$ it was gonna cost.
The same went for 1 off parts as well. AS long as they meet the minimum specs required it didnt matter. I honestly wouldnt be suprised if we ended up finding that there is another MFG that is making the screens as well.

This issue is within the source and that has yet to be released from HTC. Once its released the issue or so called issued will be resolved (probably sooner though now). HTC is probably eating $@#& right now as they have been saying its a hardware limitation and that was just proved incorrect and a false statement. Sprint does monitor all forums as a means to be more aware. If HTC was blowing smoke up Sprints %$# they just done got called out on it.
