I think this "poll" confirms what I concluded with the release of the ipad air and retina mini--that the ipad is a very mature product. I dont expect a lot of changes, perhaps true multi-tasking in ios8 and a comensurate ram increase.
I am however expecting another apple tablet that will be more like a surface hybrid. I would not be surprised to see ios on a touch notebook--but i would be surprised to see osx on a tablet
2gb ram and being able to run more than one app at once is all ask for. Doubt if the second one will ever happen.
It is shocking that the thing people want least of all is a proper stylus (Wacom digitizer).
That's the only thing I'd want, along with 2x the battery life.
I don't buy that. Developers are working on their own APIs to support better styli, but mo matter how good their products get they will never be as goon as a Wacom digitizer.If they turned the Air into a Galaxy Note type device first it would jack up the price and it would require app developers to accommodate it. Plus I have a feeling it might mess up the form factor (the Note isn't exactly svelte compared to other tablets).
Unfortunately, that has more to do with the way the market is. Most people choose android [tablets] because they are cheaper than iPads. A Galaxy note 8, costs the same as an iPad mini retina; it isn't surprising therefore that most people overlook them.The Galaxy Note, while popular, is largely a niche device. The majority of people who have the III just use it as a phablet, and the 10.1 did NOT sell especially well. I bought one and it was a beautiful device, but it wasn't exactly burning up the sales at Best Buy.
I disagree. I wouldn't be carrying a 12.9" product with myself as I do the mini. If I were carrying around something that big, it would be a laptop. And I type much faster (and much more legibly) than I write.IMO something like that should be a separate product. The iPad Pro or something. Make THAT the 12" screen version. Keep the Air untouched but make a 12" tablet with a digitizer and stylus.
