APPLE LAUNCHES THE IPAD PRO

by MARK PRIGG 
Rumours about a larger iPad have been circulating since last year and Apple has finally revealed it's larger device.
Called the iPad Pro, the tablet has a 12.9-inch display with 5.6 million pixels - this is more pixels than a 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display. 
Its width is the same height as the iPad Air, and is marginally thicker than the iPad Air 2 at 6.9mm, compared to 6.1mm.  
It features the new A9X chip which Apple's senior vice president of worldwide marketing Phil Schiller said is 1.8 time faster than the A8X in the iPad Air 2. 
He added that the iPad Pro is faster than 80 per cent of the PCs that shipped in the past six months, and graphics are faster than 90 per cent of those PCs. 
Apple also announced the Apple Pencil - a stylus to use the iPad. 
It has four speakers, and is 6.9mm thin, and has a case with keyboard built in, similar to Microsoft's Surface tablet. 
It also comes with an optional stylus called Apple Pencil. 
'To enhance what's possible and allow a new level of precision, we've designed Apple Pencil,' said Sir Jonathan Ive.
Microsoft showed off its Office software on the device, and Adobe showed off its image software.
