I would also be interested to know if the 2018 iPad will support quick charging (14.5V @ 2A) like the iPads Pro.  I don't think so, but it would be nice to get a definitive answer.  If not, that would be one more differentiating factor for the Pro line.

I have been a Toyota owner since 1999.  I only ever owned one car since then that wasn't a Toyota, and boy was I sorry.  I have to say while their Infotainment systems aren't the worst I've ever seen, they are nothing compared to CarPlay.  I have to admit that their lack of support nearly caused me to dip my toe into the world of autos that are not Toyota once again.  I just bought a Toyota in December, but it was a close decision between it and a comparable Ford.  If the Ford model year I was looking at had have had CarPlay, I would have bought it.  It was really that close.  Toyota came very close to loosing a 20 year customer because they decided they didn't want to support a feature that is sweeping the car industry.  I wonder how many other customers they did eventually loose (even if only for the "current" purchase) based on Infotainment offerings.  They must know or have a pretty good estimate and hence this announcement.

Hey guys.  I'm a LTL (long time lurker) that finally decided to take part in the conversation.  First I wanted to thank everyone for the tremendous advice and helpful discussions I've benefited from over the last 8 years.

The app is pretty poor. Better than nothing.
But I live in Germany and I have my settings on the ATV 4K to English and USA (I am American and have the iTunes account in the USA) but the UI is in German. 
I understand the content will be regional, but Netflix has no issues showing me the UI in the language I want. Namely, English. 
And the “settings” menu, has no real settings either apart child lock. The rest are useless descriptions of prime video and the such. 
So for each move and tv show I have to reset the language and subtitles to English each time...

It is funny, but this is the exact situation I'm in.  Can I ask you, did you sign in on the Apple TV using the "Sign in and start watching" option or the "Register Apple TV online" option.  I want to make sure that the app recognizes my German Prime credentials. 

Also, Do you find the TV App support to be better than Netflix.  Because I have a US Netflix account, the TV app support is spotty because occasionally the search results tell me something is available on Netflix and when I click it I get the error in the Netflix app that this program isn't available in my area.  I guess the TV app defaults in Netflix's case to searches and so forth in the US library and of course there are many programs that are available in the US library that aren't available here.
