It's too bad, I know a ton of devs who would buy one ASAP if Apple just allowed JIT in apps.

I love mine (typing on it now) for content consumption and social applications.

I wrote a programming book fully on my iPad, including the coding examples, often while traveling abroad.

But, I usually had it hooked up to a 60% keyboard and mouse, and I SSHd into an EC2 instance for the programming parts.

Still, pretty fun experience.

Yeah that's really the only viable system for doing coding projects.

It's a shame when this thing has a whole M4 chip with 16GB RAM yet is less capable natively programing than my x200 from '08.
