I fail to see the connection, you suggested him to use the iPod to run iPad apps.... of course there will pe some for the Pro, but it wasn't the point.
Hm... Definitely something to think about then.
Sadly, the US site and app aren't even referencing in-store availability for me now for the pencil and keyboard. I may be "stuck" waiting...
Three infants and a three year old. WOW!
And I get my butt kicked by my 5 and 3 year old over here!
Its on the receipt, all purchases now at Apple have a January return date.Where does it say this? I have been trying to look on their website for this policy but cannot find it!
A deal breaker? Because of a wait of maybe a week or two? How were you using a pen/stylus before now? If you waited a little longer, you would not have had to face the devastating deal breaker situation. Jeez, seems harsh.
So it does come with the adapter, and looks like a spare tip?
How does that adapter work? Could it be used as a cap? Is it uni directional? Have you tried plugging it onto anything else? Does it pass through data, or does it only provide power?

Can you post a picture to confirm? Just called Apple twice and both times they said 14 days
I don't have the receipt to post, but I saw in another thread someone posting that Apple has switched over to the holiday return period.
I've called Apple 3 times now. They all say 14 days. I want you to be right but how can I believe with every apple employee saying different?
Sure, but you need a Wacom device. With iPad Pro, you just need the Pencil. Huge difference in terms of portability, I would think.
I guess I'm still a notebook guy and haven't really embraced the tablet revolution, as neither my iPad rMini or iPad 2 before that really fit my work style.
That said, I can't think of a single iOS app I have on phone/tablet that I can't do just as easily, and in most cases much more easily, in OSX
I ordered my iPad Pro and it is ready at the store. However, I see shipping times are already slipping.
My head about exploded when I saw the pencil would take a few days so I decided to wait to get to the store and now it is 3-4 weeks!!!! The pencil is WHY I wanted the iPad pro so much...oh well. I am a patient person.
Woke up at 8am. Ordered for pickup at my store, and picked it up at 10am when the store opened. I will probably get the Pencil for Christmas. This thing is basically a bigger iPad with more speed. Exactly what I wanted. I will be returning the Air 2 that I just purchased and keeping this one.
That's probably true. However, I fully expect to see availability improve. Of all the things Apple makes, this is the least exotic in terms of construction. Mainly plastics, doesn't seem to contain any unusual electronics. So Apple likely underestimated the initial demand for the Pencil, and by increasing production should easily improve those delivery times.
So no Pencils in stock at the store when you went? Or a conscious decision on your part to wait for it? Very curious about US store availability.
I agree to a point. As someone who spends about half their computing time with a wacom pen in hand, the iPad pro could become a replacement if there is a good sync with creative cloud that would allow you to bounce back and forth.
For now...wacom wins for the professional but a $99 add-on is a great deal to someone without one.
Pencils were always a ship next week in the US, I think. Now you will be waiting until Christmas because delivery is mid December.

Who knows. I don't think they thought it would be a 1 -1 sale (everyone would want one). The pencil ship times slipped way faster than the iPads themselves.
Someone had a pencil when I picked mine up at the store. They were next week shipping when I did my order around 7 EST though.
I was stupid. I waited up until 2AM and thought it'd still be available...oops. I always tend to underestimate Apple buyers' enthusiasm . The weird thing is that I literally had NOBODY mention this product to me outside of Apple forums before and when I brought up the product they always asked me "You mean the Air?". I think Apple is incredibly good at what they do. Just hope I can get one before Christmas now!
