The mythical slate was back in the headlines thanks to the appearance of images online claiming to show a ‘dummy’ shell for the iPad Pro. The snaps appear to show casing with an unidentified port on the side of the device.
Some Android tablets already have these features. Samsung's 12-inch Galaxy Note Pro, for example, has a USB 3.0 port, and the company sells a wireless mouse and keyboard case for it. Microsoft's Surface Pro 3 also comes with a full-sized USB 3.0 port.
A larger iPad could bolster Apple's attempts to increase its appeal to business users. Last year, the company teamed up with IBM to create mobile apps for businesses and for IBM to help sell iPads to corporate customers.
