But while people are still waiting for the supposed bigger-screen iPhone (or iPhones (http://online.wsj.com/articles/apple-suppliers-gear-up-for-large-screen-iphones-1405985788)) and a smartwatch (http://www.engadget.com/2014/06/20/apple-iwatch-october-launch-ten-sensors/) to show up, we can now add one more device to the list. According to (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-08-26/apple-said-to-prepare-new-12-9-inch-ipad-for-early-2015.html)Bloomberg (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-08-26/apple-said-to-prepare-new-12-9-inch-ipad-for-early-2015.html), Apple's set to introduce a 12.9-inch iPad in 2015. Citing sources familiar with the matter, the report claims that production on said iPad, which would be Apple's biggest yet (http://www.engadget.com/2013/10/29/ipad-air-review/), is scheduled to begin as early as Q1 of next year, noting that it's all part of Tim Cook's plan to "shake up the iPad line (http://www.engadget.com/2014/04/23/apple-q2-2014-ipad/)." Of course, this isn't the first time we've heard whispers on a 12.9-inch tablet from the iPhone maker, as some outlets have previously reported (http://www.techtimes.com/articles/10561/20140716/12-9-inch-ipad-pro-to-be-released-with-ipad-air-2-and-updated-ipad-mini-in-the-fall.htm) on leaked parts from a device being known as "iPad Pro (http://www.nowhereelse.fr/photo-maquette-ipad-pro-97830/)." Now whether or not Apple is actually working on one, that's yet to be determined -- but even if it was, let's not forget that companies tend to have a change of heart (http://mashable.com/2014/07/23/surface-mini-killed/) from time to time.
