What do you use the pencil for, Alice? Drawing, mouse type precision?

While at the App,e Store last weekend I played with the iPad Pro and Apple Pencil. The iPad Pro has a big gorgeous screen. It runs very fast. For me, the iPad Pro seems a bit too big and a bit on the heavy side. I was very impressed with the Apple Pencil. It felt like a pen or pencil. No need to hold it horizontal to work. I was able to hold it exactly like I would a pen or pencil and lean my hand on the iPad as if it were paper when writing or drawing. It's exactly what I have been looking for in a stylus for a long time. I wish it would work with the iPad mini 4. Hopefully the Apple Pencil will be popular enough that Apple will want o make the iPad mini so the Apple Pencil will work with it. I'd upgrade my iPad 4 just for the Apple Pencil.

Are you planning to get the Apple Pencil, too? I am dying to know how it works, especially with art apps. Since I'm laid up with foot surgery I've gotten back into ArtRage on my iPad Air 2. It would be great to replace the stylus with a much more sensitive Apple Pencil. I know it only works with the Pro now, but I'm hoping the technology will spread to later standard iPads since that's the perfect size for me.

Can't wait to hear your take on the Pro, Pat.

You might put it right at the top of your Christmas list! My own is an early gift from me to me!

Split View is my jam! lol (OK, so it won't play two videos at the same time. That could be some kind of constraint on everything using some kind of Apple Video Player routine.)
