[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 998247"] I don't mean to rain on your parade, but as v1 isn't out yet perhaps this could be seen in some quarters as jumping the gun just a teeny tiny bit? Might one reasonably expect that one should actually try one in their own hands before deciding it even NEEDS a "2nd gen"? I mean, look at the iPhone. In the past three years, it has gotten no serious hardware change at all. It gained a bit of faster/better on the cpu, storage capacity and camera, but really that's almost it. A brand new iPhone today is incredibly similar-looking to an original. The reason is that Apple got the design right in the first place. They certainly seem to feel the same way about the iPad, and it's VERY VERY clearly intended as a consumer device, so I'm thinking your hopes for a iPad Pro are as likely as an iPod Pro. Anyway, an "iPad Pro" as you describe it has existed for years now; its called a ModBook, and there's a reason more people here (or any people here, now that I come to mention it) don't own one.
