Pro for who, though? It seems like iPad devices are only “pro” for point of sale applications and some parts of an artist’s workflow. Otherwise, a real laptop, whether it be Apple or not, is a lot more “pro.”
I meant in terms of specs nearing iPad Pro (not the professionals) :)

I want one because I appreciate the technology. But I don’t want one because I can’t really figure out a real use case for me. Between my laptop and my phone, I don’t really see any gaps that a tablet would fill.

That said, these new iPad Airs are just awesome. It’d be nice to have as a toy.
