An IPad with a keyboard is nothing more than a laptop with a touchscreen and only a touchscreen -- no mouse of touchpad. Apple already said that that was not an effective configuration.
They did. They were talking about Laptops with touchscreens... Isn't that what you're picture shows? Oh! Wait! No! It's touchscreen with a keyboard! So how is a touchscreen with a keyboard different from a keyboard with a touchscreen?
Its very different from a usability perspective. Its MUCH easier to type on an a physical keyboard such as Apple's Smart Keyboard vs physically on the touchscreen. If you think its the same thing you're very mistaken.
Bottomline is...I don't care what Apple did or didn't say in the past, they're currently pushing this model. They wouldn't offer a smart keyboard if this was the case and they wouldn't have just ran an ad about how an iPad Pro with a keyboard can replace your Windows PC. Speaking of the ad, you STILL haven't answered my question about why Apple just ran an ad about doing the very thing you said they'd never do.
LOL... So how exactly is typing on a keyboard attached to a tablet any different than typing on laptop with a touch screen?
Apple said that they would not make a touch screen laptop because it sucks. But, they never said that they would not add an external keyboard to an IPad. Neither have they said that they would not add a touchpad to that keyboard. It's coming. Deal with it.

Apparently, you've never done both. Its significantly different typing on a touchscreen vs a physical keyboard and not just on an iPad, but the same would be true for any device that could pop up a touchscreen keyboard.
And, I'll keep asking because you keep ignoring this question. Why did Apple just make an ad about using an iPad as a laptop/desktop replacement? Why are you ignoring this question over and over again? Is it because it dismisses your point? Because it does!

I'll ask again: .... How exactly is typing on a keyboard attached to a tablet any different than typing on laptop with a touch screen?
