Visited my local ๐ŸŽ Store to try the new iPad Pros. Theyโ€™re nice!

But I canโ€™t justify upgrading my 2018 11โ€. The new model is much thinner, but the thickness and weight of my iPad arenโ€™t issues for me. (At least not when itโ€™s naked. The Smart Keyboard is hefty, but the new models are still heavy in that combo.)

The iPadOS software story at WWDC is going to be interesting. Because the only thing that really makes new iPad hardware desirable is the software it can run; which the older ones canโ€™t.

@rowan_johnson for the last 4yrs (since iPad Air 4, when it got USB-C, which I bought hoping to live the @viticci life) I've been waiting for the iPad capabilities to cash the cheques its hardware has been writing.

It never happened.

Been back on the Mac since the 13" M1 was released.

@rowan_johnson also, the Air is a waste of a product. Either buy the base, or a refurb last gen Pro, which is my next move.
