I gotta be honest - I wish I had the guts to get the gold. It's a really nice color! But I think the bezel will pull me back toward gray...right. gotcha. seems more a bezel colour issue than the liking of the space grey.
Space Gray 128GB w/LTE, Pencil and Smart Keyboard.
I plan to make it my main "computer" and sell my MacBook Pro. We'll see how it goes.
I am getting tired of all black devices after many years of buying only black phones. That's why I went for a yellow smartphone this time around as well as a golden iPad; it's a refreshing changemy ipad2 is silver/black bezels, and my ipod touch is all white. must admit, the black bezels are looking kinda heavy these days. back in the day i found black to be more 'technical' and manly, so to speak. white was a bit girly. these days it's all change. variety and all that. Gold/white bezels seems a much nicer choice to me than the awful space grey just for the sake of black bezels. so yesterday
No, iPhone only this year.Will the pro have 3D Touch?
If I get one it will bee the lowest/cheapest spec.
I realise iPadPro2 will add all the things missing from this 1st gen model and that's going to be the good one, and by buying the lowest spec you will have the least loss from your sale in 12 months time.
I don't need to load a ton of apps on. the performance is no different, so no point.
They wouldn't let the Air 3 overtake the Pro in specifications. So there will be a second gen Pro next year; there has to be.whos to to say they will update it in a year? It could be 2 years, the iPad Air 3 could be next year and then the iPad Pro updated the year after.

Excellent point, regardless of whether it's 12 months or 24. You just helped me decide which configuration I will get.If I get one it will bee the lowest/cheapest spec.

There's really no way to know what will change in the next generation. Will Apple add USB-C? Force Touch? 3D Touch? Touch ID 2? Like it's been said a million macrumor times, these kinds of questions could always have us waiting and never buying. But going for the low end is a decent(ish) compromise, until the "good one" for each of us comes along.
Personally, I want in at Gen 1, because I tend to skip generations (unless I can get a good trade-in). Those future features won't add critical functionality to my UX. And if by some miracle Apple decides to drop Lightning in favor of USB-C, then adapters can tide me over at least to Gen 3. And then I'll also know for certain whether I need LTE or more storage.
I am concerned this close to the launch we haven't heard from supply chain sources that a particular component is in short supply and will effect number of units available at launch. Why is the supply chain failing us this time?
I'm with you on the no keyboard. Other than its over priced I don't want to use the iPad as laptop.128gb wifi +LTE space gray + pencil. absolute NO KEYBOARD
Apple is making a Smart Case for the iPad Pro that will be compatible with the Smart Keyboard. That's probably what I'll end up doing.Im iffy on the keyboard too. Its even more then the surface keyboards, it doesn't protect the back of the unit, and from what i hear, the keys are supper shallow and don't feel great to type on.
Might wait for a review on the keyboard, and check out 3rd party add ons later. I really hope otter box puts out there case for it soon, as I've use otterbox cases on all my IOS devices and they saved them countless times, and i hope they incorporate a way for the case to use a keyboard as well!
