The thing I wish the iPad had was a keyboard and trackpad it locked into securely. When traveling I use my laptop on my, well, lap all the time. I usually travel with a tablet but it’s for entertainment. If I could turn it into something closer to a laptop, I’d ditch the laptop more often.

Fwiw Brydge makes these, with a second version coming later this year.

I looked at them. One issue was that by the time I considered the weight and bulk, I felt I might as well carry a separate Chromebook. And then I have something that’s standard laptop behavior too. I admit what I think I want may not actually be doable.
