Let's sp

It's a pencil, not a stylus.

lit the difference and call it a writing stick.

 

[TechZeke]

this stream is getting crazier by the minute LOL

I've never SEEN so many rumors come true in the span of 30 minutes.

An apple product with an stylus? What's next, a 17" laptop?

 

[Velin]

iPad Pro + stylus is really good. Give us the price.

 

[bbfc]

Impressive stuff from Adobe.

 

[BeefCake 15]

Holy Crap, at first I thought they were bringing the other Snowden lol

 

[pat500000]

maybe Apple was under influence of MS's spell!

 

[H2SO4]

Mkw

Doesn't make sense for a phone, but makes sense for a tablet.

Makes just as much sense on a phone where your fat fingers cover a bigger percentage of what you are seeing.

iPad Pro firmly focussed on the enterprise market (and potentially the creatives but less so). Expect the price to reflect this.

Think this could finally crack the enterprise laptop/tablet hybrid market.

WHAT THE HELL...??? MICROSOFT ARE HERE! MICROSOFT ARE HERE!

The Pencil doesn't look responsive enough.. Still seems to lag.

It is not a replacement for taking notes. This thing was built only for some artists who don't work on paper anymore.. I guess?

Display looks really good. Product is good. Probably will be too expensive, I think. Not sure how great of a seller it will be. Don't think its a notebook replacement.

 

[Agent OrangeZ]

You mean the S-Pen that has been around for years?

You mean to tell me that you don't expect Samsung to copy the pressure/angle sensors in the Apple Pencil and the Note 13.0 tablets in 2016 and Samsung to have the balls to call it Samsung Pencil?

Samsung Pay says hello.

 

[troubleonline]

Just made an appointment to sell one of my kidneys so I can pre-order the iPad Pro

Careful you won't have that option next year!!!

An apple product with an stylus? What's next, a 17" laptop?

yes plz

 

[kybldmstr]

ok the demos can stop now

 

[Flow39]

Looks like the iPad pro is the main announcement today

Wait for Apple TV. Eddy Cue tweeted about that earlier today.

eric snowden? sounds familiar...wasn't he the whistleblower?

Sp3 stylus uses a triple aaa battery. Granted the battery last a long time but it still does need power.

AAAA actually. And 2 hearing aid batteries for the Bluetooth tip.

Looks like the SP3 does have a battery, but it lasts what, months?

So far mine has gone almost a full year without needing to be replaced. Though I don't use it that often.

 

[nutjob]

Apple had one in 1993, so no they're far from late. They just took a long time to update theirs .

Everything old is new again!

 

[RedRaven571]

In all seriousness, this is going to be huge for any kind of design.

 

[venomgt95]

Odds on Snowden announcing Flash for Apple Pencil?

 

[icedlatte]

Unless I missed it, I haven't seen anyone resting their hand on the screen when they're drawing :\

 

[Traverse]

WHAT THE HELL...??? MICROSOFT ARE HERE! MICROSOFT ARE HERE!

They are not evil, unlike many people seem to believe. They make software that is essential to many people's workflow.

Sounds like the iPad Pro DOESN'T use Lightning! Hurray! 100% of the Lightning devices I've used have that port die. I love the Surface line, but for a couple of reasons I like the iPad better as an eReader, BUT I wasn't buying another one if it used Lightning (I'm still on an iPad 2 for that reason...)

Weight's awesome, same as a good 10" tablet but with basically a 13" screen, is actually impressive. I'm not one of these people who whines about weight, but 1.5lbs seems like maybe a good weight for a tablet.

Didn't you see the pencil plugged into the lightning port?
