Suppliers said Apple has placed orders for a 9.7-inch screen device.
According to "people familiar with the situation", Apple is aiming to launch the iPad 3 in early 2012.
The Wall Street Journal's sources also indicate that a trial run will begin in October and that Apple has already started placing orders for many of the key components for the next iPad.
