I agree that a lot could be improved on the iPad and I would not say no to the features you suggest. But I’m not sure I understand why you would want to use an iPad instead of a laptop as a developer. For me the whole thing with the iPad is the pencil. I would never use it for development tasks (maybe like some sort of emergency device while traveling).

Not saying you are wrong to want to use it for development, just curious why!

Because the iPad is only missing a keyboard to become a laptop hardware wise. In theory. The laptop is redundant.

You can even have better ergonomics with a detachable screen. Basically a desktop setup with laptop mobility.

Fair enough, that makes sense and would be nice if it worked.

It would be the last device I ever need, if it did work like that... It actually hurts me, how its limitations are completely arbitrary and artificial. The iPad could be the best thing ever, yesterday. So, so frustrating and disappointing.
