Apple’s iPad Pro goes on sale Wednesday - The Washington Post

tbd if this will help to resume overall iPad sales growth; Apple sold ~10 million iPads last quarter, the fewest in a fiscal quarter since 2011

"Apple on Monday announced that it will begin accepting online orders for the iPad Pro on Wednesday and that the tablet should show up in stores by the end of the week.

The 12.9-inch iPad is the largest tablet Apple's ever made, with a screen larger than some of its laptops. The tablet proudly carries the "Pro" moniker, marking it as Apple's top-of-the-line iPad. It also tells you a little more about the demographic Apple's targeting here. The Pro is designed to do some heavy lifting, which comes in handy for people who want to use it at the office. The screen size alone signals that its display is good for group projects, while the company boasts that its internals outstrip most PCs on the market. In other words, this is for more than just watching Netflix in bed (though you could do that, too)."
