As someone suffering from RSI, I’d buy this in an instant if it worked with MacBook Pro and connects wirelessly (so that I can rest the keyboard on my lap). Promising !
IMHO: The Macbook (the small one, that was killed) made more sense than these iPad + keyboard attachments. You had a one, slim package that was easy to use on lap and carry around with one hand (even if open). It was able to run normal software, there was no need to resort to hacking to do for example software development. The negative thing with Macbook was the price point. It was a bit expensive to have as a second…

As always, it's a matter of what's your purpose. As a developer you'll be much better off with a MacBook Air, for that measure, which I think is a much better piece of hardware than the 12" MacBook.
That looks really nice. Kudos to them. These are nice enough that Apple could acquire them. Too bad it’s still possible to bend the iPad Pro in without much force or pressure. This keyboard would be a big reason to consider an iPad Pro. I ended up with an iPad mini for this reason, but the thought of an iPad mini pro would be intriguing. I hope someone might make a keyboard (maybe expanding) for the iPad mini
I don't travel with it - if you're dumping this thing in a backpack or something without support and with other stuff in there, I'm sure you can bend it; I'd suggest not doing that, I keep my laptop in a separate shock case in my messenger bag for this reason.

Have you ever tried to process RAW pictures (including pictures from Hasselblad and Fuji medium format cameras, or Canon and Sony full frame cameras) and/or edit 4K 60p video on a MacBook? Well, me neither, because it's simply impossible. Surprisingly enough, that's what I do on a regular basis on an iPad Pro. The power of the ARM setup on that machine is unbelievable. So, there you go, that's single-handedly a reaso…

They also have reliability issues with the CPU and SSD. I got a 2016 with an i5 series y processor and 512 Gen of SSD for around $615 about a year or two ago on the used market.
Does iOS support mouse cursors?
I got this year a 2019 iPad 10.2". I even bought a logitech crayon. with the exception of entertainment and being a nice tool to learn (watching online courses, reading). it's not a computer replacement yet. and Apple's multi-tasking gestures are horrible.
p.s. - Swift Playgrounds is interesting but not only it is limited I saw some bugs with it and were able to make it unresponsive quite easily (without infinite loops or nasty coding on my end...)
