I know there have been a lot of these types of threads, but I wanted to see if anyone out there has done it quite like I'm envisioning/thinking about...
I currently use a 1st gen 12.9" iPad Pro (I've got a pencil, ASK, and I picked up a Logitech Create keyboard case for $15 the other day!). I've been using it for about 1.5 years, I guess. I will probably upgrade to the 3rd gen 12.9" iPP when it comes out. I feel very comfortable using it/manipulating iOS to do the things I need.
I also have a retina MacBook (2015 model) that I carry around, as well. I do love this little machine as it is super light, thin, and has plenty of power for my needs. I also share an iMac at home (base model 21.5" from a couple years ago, a bit sluggish sometimes).
I'm a music educator, so I'm generally doing a lot of document processing (I use MS Office, iWork on both the rMNP and iPP). I also do a lot of reading and occasional composing (using Finale and Sibelius, things that aren't available for iOS). In my personal time, I consume a lot of music, reading, web browsing, shopping, watching movies and tv.
My real question: I've been thinking about just carrying around the iPP and selling the rMBP. I can use the iMac at home when needed for heavier tasks. My thinking is, I'd like to purchase a second iPad, probably a used Air 2 or a 9.7" iPP to use alongside my 12.9" iPP, particularly if I'm making it my primary device. I'd probably use the 12.9" iPad Pro as more of a stand alone device on my desk while using the smaller iPad for quick tasks or as a grab and go when I need to take something quickly. What are your thoughts? Are any of you using two iPads (similar setup) on the go?
