Do any developers use an iPad pro? There's just so many OS features that I would miss going to an iPad; multiple windows on the screen, multiple monitors...

Although there would be less distractions, it seems like a huge step down in capabilities.

I like the iPad as a secondary device but the lack of user freedom and true file management would be an issue for me if it was my only computer.

I could do this if the iPad Pro supported a mouse. For something that I do I need to point and click and tapping the screen wastes a lot of time.
