Also, lack of any place to store the stylus is curious. Even Microsoft's silly cloth loop is better than nothing, which is what Apple provides. IMHO, it would have made far more sense to have some sort of groove on the side, with something like the "MagSafe" connector used on the laptops, so that you could store and charge the stylus when it wasn't being used.
I'm also curious why they didn't use Bluetooth for the keyboard. As designed, you can only use the keyboard in one specific position. If you're in a situation where the that specific position won't work (in a coach airplane seat?), then the keyboard is useless.
The base unit seems nice enough, but unless you are already committed to the iOS environment, the Surface Pro seems like a more reasonable choice for the intended market (i.e. enterprise business).
The iPads have been accepted and are in use in 95% of the Enterprise businesses. . . 98% of the Fortune 500.
You have a point, but the Apple Pencil is actually thicker than the iPad Pro, so having a Pencil storage/charging station garage in the iPad is a non-starter. I would be willing to bet that within a month, third party company will be selling sticky gadgets that will attach to the iPad Pro that will hold the Pencil. I can picture one in my mind right now. Maybe I should patent it. . .
