TAIPEI, Taiwan – Apple’s suppliers are preparing to manufacture the company’s largest-ever iPad, with production scheduled to commence by the first quarter of next year, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

The new iPad will have a screen measuring 12.9 inches diagonally, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the details aren’t public. Apple currently produces iPads with 9.7-inch and 7.9-inch displays. The Cupertino, Calif.-based company has been working with suppliers for at least a year to develop a new range of larger touch-screen devices, said the people.

Trudy Muller, a spokeswoman for Apple, declined to comment.

Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook is working to shake up the iPad line.
