so the iPad Pro keyboard doesn't use wires internally, it uses a conductive fabric. i guess the purpose being that wires can frew or detach when bent too much. i don't know if that's been done before or not but seems pretty amazing. unfortunately i still think that keyboard looks really uncomfortable and way too much like apple original iPad case.

really they should have like put the Lightning connector on a short cord inside the pencil, so it flops around instead of sticking out ramrod straight

or, better still, not required a stupid stylus that needs to be charged at all because it goes against steve's vision, let alone the fact that the technology already exists to create a precise, battery-free stylus but tim got scared by microsoft surface advertising last christmas and here we are

the iPad pro seems ok. it's hilarious when you put it next to a surface book tho - at least the iPad doesn't wobble with normal typing

it just wobbles when you fold up the keyboard and set it down flat because johnny ives considered the camera bump too elegant of a design

Silver Alicorn posted:really they should have like put the Lightning connector on a short cord inside the pencil, so it flops around instead of sticking out ramrod straight there is some sort of flex mechanism that makes it bend and fall out of the port when stressed instead of snapping, but yeah its loving stupid and this is one use case where some sort of bespoke inductive charging setup makes more sense, especially if it lasts all day anyway still really annoyed that its called a pencil but doesn't have an eraser on the end like tablet pens. you dont need fancy angle sensors like the front part, just a basic pressure sensor in the endcap, or even just let the cap mechanically transmit pressure to something measuring it in the body of the pencil. hoping this is the rough 1st pass and they chose base technology that they will refine and improve in time

lightning port in the pencil is kinda sorta dumb yeah, i guess the idea is you only need one kind of charger for everything lightning port for the new tragic macpad, magic mouse, and the keyboard is just loving stupid, idgi, why not a usb type c connector?

because someone is more likely to have a lightning cable for charging than having a usb-c cable

they should have just put a lightning port on it like the new ATV remote and ship it with a USB to lightning cable or i guess cause they want to be able to charge on the go, a lightning to lightning cable

can the cintiq do angles and whatnot? if not that i thinks basically the killer app right there. a pencil that take 15 seconds to charge lmao you'd use it like an hour each month, tops Linguica posted:They should have at least made it shaped like an inkwell.

https://uk.news.yahoo.com/watch-man-smelled-burning-flesh-082848397.html#13400t0 A Danish man has claimed he was left with severe burns on his wrist after the strap of his Apple Watch started glowing with heat. Jorgen Mouitzen nipped to the loo during a flying club meeting, where he suddenly felt a searing pain in his arm. He said he could smell burning flesh an instant later and realised it was coming from the wrist with the smartwatch on.

it's bullshit. it would have to be heated to 752 F minimum to glow. he would have felt that WELL before it was noticeable. even if his watch had a bad battery and superheated that quickly, it would have split into pieces from the expansion
