I am interested in the concept of an iPad Pro comming out, but am curious to what hard ware attachments will be available.

I would expect to see USB support and HDMI at the very least and I am hoping that a keyboard that doubles as a cover will be standard.

What do you think the standard configuration for the iPad Pro should be in order to be viable and successful?

It needs to come with apples software written and implemented digitizer.

It will definitely not have USB support. I suspect if Apple wasn't 100% sure they'd lose most mac customers they'd remove the USB port from macbooks. They hate standard ports that improve expandability. (Not a judgement statement, just an observation)

USB ports?
How dare you insult us like that. Apple will never make it easy to connect to anything via USB!

Without official adapters, that is.

Think different.

I'm pretty sure a usb port is thicker than the iPad so no chance will it be included. an adapter might be made though.
