What? I had exactly the opposite reaction. Since this replaces the iPad Air, to me this is a return to sanity.
- iPad Pro
- iPad
- iPad Mini
This seems ideal.
If you are a "Pro" you surely don't mind spending a few minutes looking up the differences of the "Pro" model to see if it's something you need.
If you are not a "Pro" your choices are now, Do I want the regular one or the mini one?
Previously non-pros were faced with the conceptually bizarre choice of *Do I want the air one or the mini one?" which sounds like the ramblings of a crazy person.
Like... "Air" and "Mini"... what a weird choice. They both sound like super-portable models. OK. But... super-portable compared to... what, exactly? There were no "regular" models, only "variants." What were they varying from?
