Given what was shown at the presentation, there was reason to ask the question. Yes, there is support for palm rejection in the iPad Pro/iOS 9. But the follow up question becomes, "is it universal to the entire system or must app developers code support for palm rejection?"To me, it's weird that this thread existed in the first place. There are lots of videos (including Apple's iPad Pro video) where palm rejection is shown. So it's obviously possible. That's where the thread could be closed already. Whether or not it is applied in all apps is a pointless question then, as clearly not every app neds to have or should have palm rejection.
I suspect that over the next month there will be a lot of scrambling of developers updating their apps to utilize these new APIs.
It looks like there are APIs available to app developers to support palm rejection when using the Apple Pencil, but the apps must be written to use them. THAT would explain why so many of the Apple Pencil demonstration videos show the hand floating uncomfortably over the screen using some apps, and hand resting on the screen in others.
It doesn't appear that you are paying attention to what is being discussed in this thread.Here another reason that this thread can be closed due to the fact that the answer is YES

To me, that question was also answered by the fact that you can use the ruler in the Notes app together with the pencil. Using the ruler requires the touch portion of the screen to be active, and it would be quite difficult to implement palm rejection together with the ruler function. So obviously, some apps will have palm rejection. Others won't.Given what was shown at the presentation, there was reason to ask the question.

If it doesn't have palm rejection that's like the kiss of death for a device already on life support. Artist will review and shun it because of that and the fallout will carry the iPad further into death since it has already been declining anyway.
They already said that apple pencil has the most low latency stylus on the marketOh man, I hope we get more feedback from that. All anyone is asking about on Twitter is palm rejection, ugh. How about accuracy, latency, feel? Did the Pixar team like it?
