It's still 129 dollars over Apple's price and the aftermarket accessories they include are not at all worth the difference IMO.

all those accessories can be found on the big A or at TJ or Marshalls type of store, not worth adding over $100+ to the cost of an iPad which you can buy anywhere,

@Jordan2 I agree that a new iPad Pro should be coming. I want to buy the one they have now as they usually drop the price online right after that happens. 

I always have two iPads and pass on the ones I replace to my daughter or grandchildren.

The new iPads just came out a couple months ago

There's an Apple event on Oct. 30 taking place in Brooklyn, NY. Rumors there are going to be a new iPad Pro and MacBook Air.

@annie ar, I heard this this morning. I have been waiting so long for an announcement about a new iPad Pro, I'm dying to get one.

@jaxs mom ... usually QVC does not sell the most recent versions of Apple products .... at ridiculously high prices.  Always better to purchase directly from Apple IMHO.

This morning while working with my Apple Pencil, I realized how much more “intuitive” it is! This will GREATLY benefit my projects! ( Cataracts and less stability of hands as I age hinder) 

I did notice in the past some HAPTICS, meaning ie: lift the phone and it turns on. Also, my last iPhone sort of knew how to set itself based on my habits, which it seemed to intuit!

I am grateful to this company for introducing products and updates that make life easier.

To add: my tv and Apple devices are listening! They know which sites I visit on the internet and then offer up those favorites predicted to like.

I yelled at the “smart” tv for playing a “twangy” country song! lol. And I used to make fun of people for “talking” to ALEXA!

The two year olds in our family were happy with their parents’ phones! Well, not at 2...nearer to three. 

The DGD did call an Uber unexpectedly; but our DGS has learned all about “tractows” (tractors) and tells us about “bailers” and “lifters.”

However, all of them have rubberized enclosures on them.

I don’t know much about the cellular tablets?

They probably require a cell tower so one would need to have the same as a mobile account just like a phone.

My iPad works in the car on trips (maps)...but it may be accessing my iPhone cellular for that? IDK
