Re: Value?

The iPad Pro runs iOS not Mac OS. Which means no mouse pointer on screen, no need for a trackpad.

It's really no different from Android devices that don't show a cursor on-screen until you attach a mouse to drive it ... except that with an Android device you can attach a mouse to drive it.

(...but I see I'm not the first to point that out.)

My Sony smartphone does look a bit odd with an OTG adaptor and a Microsoft optical mouse attached (and I bet the mouse's LED sucks the battery) but I do get an onscreen pointer, even on a phone!
