I'm really looking forward to the rumoured iPad Pro updates - I had a 9.7 Pro then upgraded to the 10.5 Pro last year, if the rumours are close to true with thinner bezels I think I'd be keen on changing to an updated 12.9" version if it's physically smaller than the current gen 12.9" with much smaller bezels around the screen.

I’ll 3rd this. My 10.5 is a superb machine, but I can’t help feeling a larger screen would be very nice for watching stuff on, and the larger keyboard better for typing on. That being said, for the £500 or so I’ll get for the 10.5 and k/b and the £1k+ I’ll no doubt need to fork out for the newer model makes it a decision not to be taken lightly, particularly when you can get some nice laptops etc... (in fact you can already get a Pixelbook for £750!)

I wish the Keynote would hurry up so I can make decision on getting an iPad Pro to replace my Macbook Pro. For what I need from my personal machine the large pro is more than enough for me.

They have a IOS app coming soon, so top spec pc in the cloud and run on a ipad screen?

Despite the recent leaks of the CAD drawings of the new iPad Pro design I have a feeling they might keep next Wednesday's event to just iPhones and have a separate event for the iPads. I can't (read: don't want to have to) wait
I hate that Apple have locked out Bluetooth controllers, all the ones they allow are either rubbish or expensive.

The SteelSeries Nimbus is pretty good
This is Apple, if there's one thing they get right it's that kind of UX. I'd be incredulous if that's true (and I'm not a fanboy, got an Android phone and no tablet).

Have you held the 12”? I find it on the uncomfortable side of heavy.
I haven't but will obviously give it a try before buying, if not the 12.9" then the 9.7" model will be another option.

It’s the 10.5” Pro you want. The 9.7” was the first gen.
I moved from the iPad Air 1st Gen to the Pro 10.5, the difference is night and day. Even my 2nd iPad (cheaper 2018 model with Apple Pencil support) is quicker than my 1st Gen iPad Air.

Anyone else picked up a new iPad Pro today?
I sold my older 12.9 a few weeks ago with a plan to downsize to the 11” - hadn’t pre-ordered and ended up in the Apple Store buying a new 12.9” instead - lovely bit of kit, much sexier, lighter and compact and this thing just flies!!!
