New $329 iPad includes support for the Apple Pencil, A10 Fusion processor
I believe the Apple Pencil is $89 for schools and $99 for everyone else.macxpress said:fallenjt said:I'm glad that Apple doesn't use Face ID on the regular iPad. It's disaster for kids sharing it in schools. iPad pro is more a personal device and I agree it should have Face ID. I'm glad that they make the 9.7" iPad compatible with the Pencil. I wish they make Pencil cheaper like $49.
Yeah, I would have at least liked to see Apple Pencil like $69 or $79 for educational use, not the same $99. So basically you have a $299 iPad and a $99 pencil, so thats $398, and if you want the rugged K-12 case/keyboard that is available for K-12 schools, thats another $99 and 3yr AppleCare+ is another $74 per iPad. The price can go up in a hurry depending on what you want to accomplish. I suppose not everyone needs to have an Apple Pencil with their iPad. I can see those getting lost/stolen pretty easily.

Apple Maps expands lane guidance feature Austria, South Africa, and Switzerland
I would love Apple to do the same kinda of public updates with Siri, people seem to have a misconception that Siri hasn't changed at all, when that couldn't be further from the truth.

Facebook rumored to take on Apple HomePod with first two smartspeakers
Couldn’t say it better myself, FaceBook GTFO of here with your ever encroaching into people’s public lives. There will probably be a kids version released next where kids wear around there necks so parents can follow their kids via Facebook everywhere and anywhere. Black Mirror episodes will soon start writing themselves now sigh....zroger73 said:No, thanks. Facebook is creepy enough without putting even more cameras and microphones in my house.

Estimates peg HomePod build cost at $216, Apple's margin smaller than competitors
These things are mostly useless, since so many things are unaccounted for and it leads to people, who don't know any better, to actually believe these numbers as fact.
