Unfortunately not. I am a sucker for marketing which is even worse since I am working in marketing.
Waiting for Prosser to repeat the obvious but with a specific time added just to attempt some sort of legitimacy 
Still torn between this (256GB) or the 2020 Pro (128GB) for the same price more or less.

Still worth the $100.I bought my Air only in July, fully knowing I was going to feel buyers remorse if a new Air launched in Sept. Thankfully, they increased the price by a 100 bucks, giving features that didn't really matter to me - leaving me a lot happier
Is it? Being home a lot means no mask a lot. I really haven’t noticed much of a pain with FaceID.
With a tablet, you’ll likely be using it at home most of the time.
Swappa does not exist in Europe where I live. There are similar services, of course, but I prefer dealing directly with Apple and be covered by their 2-year warranty if things go wrong.
I did exactly the same as you, but i used my ipad air 3 a lot during the lockdown. It was/is still a fantastic device with its 10.5” laminated p3 colour gamut screen and A12 chip so i dont regret buying it at all.
Sort of defeats the object of portability though, people don’t want to have to carry round external storage...
I don't know about 'failure' but I don't like it on my iPad Pro. It takes too long. Maybe usage metrics has shown them that it's not as popular as they'd hoped so it's not going to filter down to the non-pro devices...
Blood ID.
I’m really hoping they would put this Touch ID on iPhones. Though, Ive already seen some pictures of cases for the iPhone 12, doesn’t seem like it would cater a power button Touch Button.
Waiting for the MKBHD video.

I'm guessing they'll actually arrive in customers hands just before, or just after, the iPhone presentation, depending on how Apple wants to play it - either they get to do their whole big reveal of the performance, or Tim can walk in grinning and saying, "well, by now you may have seen the benchmarks."
You're right, there's no possible way the case makers could simply remove some case material in the immediate vicinity of the button - that would defy the laws of physics.
You ask a question as if this were some newly invented technology that hasn't been available for 7+ years and proven to be highly effective.
Before knock knock technology was on android, you had to press the power button to turn on the phone. Tons of devices used this or integrated power on/off into the fingerprint sensor itself.
I think the only reason Apple never pushed this out to i-devices was because they came up with Face ID instead.
They could have also embedded the reader in the screen, but in the power button is much cheaper.
COVID really makes me miss the fingerprint sensor, which I'd prefer embedded in the display and to not have that notch and forehead...
I wish, Iris Scan was one of the coolest thing on GS8+
Yeah, I was almost a buy for this then realised I would lose ProMotion. It really is hard to go back go slower refresh rates when you're used to buttery-smooth scrolling. Fingers crossed that miniLED iPad Pro with an A14X is out sooner rather than later!
I really want one of these but the combination of that and (potentially) extra RAM on the Pro gives me pause.
Also, touching the mask as little as possible is the whole idea. Keep it on, keep it tight. Glad to hear you wear one. Albeit annoying, I thank you!
