Are you confident of a 2736x2048 resolution on this 10.5" Pro? I certainly am hoping for it, it's actually a deal breaker type issue for me, but there have been mixed signals here. Hopefully those beta 3208x3208 parallax wallpapers are a hint that this will be the resolution.
I agree with everyone here that the design we are actually getting is disappointingly iterative, and the size of the device as a whole is disappointing relative to the screen size as well, but on the other hand...
We've all been singing the "the hardware isn't the problem" song since the 12.9" Pro came out two years ago. So if we're getting an iterative hardware design, hopefully we are going to get more than an iterative OS update. I just can't get myself to believe it, though, unfortunately. I think we are setting ourselves up for disappointment if we go into WWDC expecting some kind of hallelujah moment with iOS for iPad.

Because the chamfered edges help in this regard in any way? They've got a point though, don't they? It's been 5 years since the iPad got a chassis overhaul. It should have been time with the Pro models releasing together. Rounded edges and the same display meeting frame design as the iPhone would be wonderful to hold and use.
Slipperiness doesn't come into it.
