    "Why make a bigger display? It's a magical piece of glass that lets you touch the software. It can do things that a smartphone can't do, because it doesn't have to fit in your pocket, and it can do things a laptop can't do because you can hold it all day."

    magical.

    IPad pro is AMAZING. It's a Surface Pro killer. Even Microsoft is onboard with it.

    Flame suit on. Lol

    The Surface Pro includes a stylus and is about 200 less total. The iPad Pro the stylus is an extra $99. Yikes.

    The Apple events have failed to innovate. Not a comment on the products (though so far, that appears to be pretty ho hum), but the event itself. It's rinse, wash, repeat.

    Couldn't care less about the games or shopping, AppleTV needs to stream live TV.

    Um...none of the Android or MS products have force touch on their devices. It's not a pressure sensitive pen (S-Pen), the whole display is. The 2015 Macbook and macbook pros have the force touch trackpads. Similar tech. The iPhone 6s will have it too.

    And its NOT the same tech Blackberry used in the ill-fated Storm.
