?....I had hopes for the iPad Pro but "looking beautiful" and "feeling beautiful" only go so far, and not very far at that. So I'll stick with the Air 2 + Anker keyboard cover + Adonit Jot Dash and look forward to what Apple will do (if anything) in response with the iPad Pro 2.
Respectfully, it's all subjective of course.
To me, the looks and feels will go far, they always do with Apple (my ipad2 is still a loved invaluable item in my daily life, typing this on it now). And as mentioned, it will be Apple's current crowning glory and most advanced tablet. For a while.
The old argument of "i'll wait until the next gen" never resolves itself.
And again, Apple produce every conceivable idevice you can think of, so finding one that suits you is such a personal objective.
The more i look at the SP range and love it to bits, the more i ask myself "what exactly do i want, and why?" (Luckily costs arent a factor)
Answer - got all the desktop and processing power, with windows software i need for my job. But I want a fun device. An awesome portible object of desire, that'll even innovate with a Pencil. Ios and non-desktop compatible software are exciting me more and more now i think of it. And of course, they are compatible.
So no, i know this MS stuff, fantastic as it is, would only sit on my desk gathering dust. Whereas the ipp would excite me and join me on my daily journey in life, both personal and workwise.
But its great to hear other people's ideas. Objectivly, i dont take much notice. Its all too personal a device.
