It is not the price or the hardware, it is the software. As we have seen over and over a powerful iPad Pro with the current limited iPadOS doesn't allow you to get the most out of it. I am one of many holding on buying the new iPad until we get better iPadOS updates. Lets see what WWDC brings to the iPad, fingers crossed.

9 to 6 Mac took a poll on these new iPads. most people voted NO on buying a new iPad.

So I think Apple still has an iPad sales issue with these updated iPads. my guess is the high price is turning most away.

I would assume one would have to pack their patience as it probably won't get delivered until later than Apple's delivery date of 5/15.
You'd be surprised. I bought an M1 from Costco and it arrived before Apple was going to send me one. Apple generally takes care of their resellers first.

If you're buying directly from Apple they know they already have your money. They're more concerned keeping companies that purchase 10 tens of thousands of iPads from them happy. Apple can't fulfill all their one'sies and two'sies orders before they fulfill BestBuy's, Costco's, Amazon's, etc. Why would anyone want to be a reseller if that were the case?

It's actually a bit of a deceiving listing on Amazon - it really does read and appear as though the keyboard and pencil are included.

^The way Amazon does bullet points for it makes it look like every other cheap Chinese knockoff product they sell.
