I should like the iPad Pro - together with the appropriate software - to be an effective handwriting-to-text machine; if it turns out to be such a machine, it may also give handwriting-recognition software developers a welcome boost. Whether the Pro turns out to have the screen resolution and discrimination and response-snappiness to be so, remains to be seen. The introduction of the Apple Pencil and the design of its sharp tip are positive signs.
