You might want to get an IPad Pro that was just illustrated. It is a real game changer. The IPencil and keyboard add ons along with Microsoft and Adobe apps make it a good business machine.

I used my iPad when I went to our house in Chiang Mai the last couple of times we’ve spent a good amount of time there. It freed up a lot of my time and allowed me to take care of things back home.

Showing Apple TV now. Search with Siri or via a touch remote. I have done that with Xfinity X1 for a while.

Fairly cool TV screensavers but of course as someone noted you have to leave your TV on to see them.

I cant imagine sitting under an umbrella on cliff over an otherwise abandoned beach...using an ipadpro to post on F.R.!!
******************************************************************************************************

I can imagine that...awaiting the departure of your hangover headache while enjoying the gentle, warm sea breeze as you try to recall details of the beautiful blond you met in Las Vegas the previous night when you got all jacked up ... only hazy memories at best come to you.

Then...coming up quietly behind you is Debbie Wasserman Schultz telling you how joyous she is that you two got married last night in your romantic trip to Vegas. And at that time you suddenly hurl yourself over the cliff to the rocks on the abandoned beach 100 feet below. And you never had a chance to enjoy your new iPad Pro.

Steve Jobs 2007, "Who needs a stylus?"...

Of course it's not a stylus, it's an Apple Pencil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's not a mere dead stick "stylus" used just to touch a screen, but a sophisticated electronic device that controls the width and flow of the line being drawn on the screen. It is far more than a dead stylus. Its electronics interact with the electronics of the iPad Pro to do much more than a mere stylus ever could. You need to see the demos to even begin to grasp what it can do that a stylus could never begin to do.

I’m cube-bound - what did you mean 5s free?
