I think it is great that there is a new iPad.  I like the idea of the pencil, though I can't keep a hold of these things, so I wouldn't expect schools or kids to be able to either, assuming the pencil is a product targeted at them.  It probably is for art, but I am not sure about what else it can be used for.  I'm not in that education market, so I don't know.

keyboards are crucial for creating content.  My kids loved reading from their ipads and still do.  When they need to create a document for school, they have always turned towards computers.  I can type on my ipad with the virtual keyboard, but I know I am way more productive with the physical keyboard.  A $300 ipad and the logitech keyboard, that is good sounding combo, but it depends on whether or not the marketplace buys to the point of profitability.  That is always the magic of the marketplace, sometimes it works great, other times not so much.

I feel for the family that has the loss.  I obviously don't know the specifics. 

At this point in time, I think that consumers are a long way away from being comfortable with self driving cars, governments are a long way from widespread usage and sales, and I think fleets are a long way from using these products.  after my initial excitement with the concept, I this as a product liability nightmare.  to get all of this right, i see many years until widespread usage.

Every piece of software has some bugs in it. That is just the price of life in the fast lane. I would hope that Apple would take more of a focus on software quality. It seems that iOS11 has had a lot of embarrassing little bugs like this. Hopefully the upcoming pm changes will help.
