I’m really surprised that the new Apple Pencil Pro is being supported by the Air as well! You’d think that’s a way to further differentiate the Pro from the Air, a motivation to push people to the Pro. But this is a very consumer friendly move - I applaud Apple for this. The new Air looks like the perfect replacement for my 11” iPad Pro 2nd generation with its cracked screen. But I will look into the 11” iPad Pro with that OLED display.

Very excited about a 13” iPad Air supporting an Apple Pencil w/ pressure sensitivity. This would be my next. I’ve had the 11” iPad Pro since it was released, and it’s still plenty quick - it’s also got a broken screen. I’d rather put the $800 screen replacement cost into a new unit. Here’s hoping the 13” Air w/ Cellular is reasonably priced. 

The battery does not need to be replaceable - it needs to be solid state. All Apple portables need to move to solid state batteries. I’m surprised that this is not the number one concern for Apple, AI is only a interesting thing to play with while 20-30% gain in power density in a smaller package and faster charging would be a huge boon. Also, solid state has a considerably longer life cycle than current designs.

I’d assume it’s for a paid tier. But please, don’t place ad breaks in your shows to fit in the new ads. I saw above a comment on the sports getting ads, I guess that’d make sense. But not for the other shows.

Try driving on the DC Beltway anytime during the day. It will make Metro NY look like a cakewalk.

ohh man. Have I got stories about that. I use to make safety programs for high schoolers. I had access to police/rescue photo books of horrific accident scenes within the DC Beltway. So yeah, I’d be all for AI driving assist on roadways like this.
