Apple has reportedly delayed production of its larger-screen iPads. According to reports, Apple has pushed production to the second half of this year as the company hasn't decided on a final design. It is working on new iterations and enterprise-centric features.
The device is expected to come with USB ports including USB 3.0 after demands to focus on business customers.

It is now considering the faster technology for data synchronization between the larger iPad and other computing devices," the source said. "Apple is also working on technology to speed up the iPad charging time, but it remains uncertain if the final design will have these new features."
According to reports, the new iPad, dubbed as the iPad Pro, come with a keyboard and mouse. However, it is not confirmed whether Apple will include Lightning connector inputs, a breakout cable or separate USB ports.
