Just sometime back today there was this couple who were unboxing an iPad Pro 10.5" of 2017 and it still looks such a immersive experience device. I am just not able to control my excitement what an experience and a device this year's iPad Pro would be.
 
This! Although I dong get why they are not holding it at the Steve Jobs theatre on campus, also the event will be on at 3pm U.K. time for the first time and the invites have gone out with different designs for different invites. Feels different this time around.

No it won’t be at 3pm!!!!

Summer time differences!

UK goes back an hour on 28th October, US don’t go back an hour till 4th November.

It will 2pm. I remember this happening before for an October event that was at 5pm rather than the usual 6pm.
 
Plot twist: there’s more in the making means they’re actually just making them now and are going to release them in March next year!
 
Holy poop, I woke up to this and excited. Just jumped up into the air and my wife’s like “what the heck is up with you?”

Time to either give my iPad 10.5 to the wife or sell it with all accessories to get this new one.
 
YES! My superstitious posts and thoughts worked... now I just have to say "no iPads Pros with A12X and Face ID this year" ...and maybe possibly Apple will do the opposite of what I say. ;)
*being honest here, last night I thought "I kind of think Apple will announce their event tomorrow." Weird, I don't get those very often... I'm a genie! ;)

SO HAPPY THIS IS HAPPENING. Honestly didn't think it would happen but here we are..My money is ready to be taken!! Also hoping for a new apple pencil, new apple keyboard to be put on the iPad Pro and a iMac 27 inch for black friday
 
So IF they announce these new iPads... when do you think they will be available to order? That day, October 31st, November 7th, or November 14th?
1st gen 9.7” Pros- 10 days between announcement and release
2nd gen Pros- 8 days between announcement and release, with pre-order one day after announcement

My personal prediction is pre-orders on the 2nd and release on the 9th

To order or preorder? 2nd November i think preorders and 1 week later availability
Now, with usbC i wonder if Apple is thinking to put this year this port, and next year with new ipads update it to tb3 since I tel license it

I kind of want it to be announced on stage, and would rather have that surprise.

Any products they announce to be released ASAP after the announcement itself; sales of existing products go almost to a total stop otherwise. And especially considering how close to Christmas we will be. I can’t imagine a mid-November release for that reason. I suspect they will be available to buy from the Friday of the same week (so November 2nd).

I'm thinking the keynote's mainly going to be about the iPad Pro?

Still cant be too sure; they might just not do it at the very last minute (like AirPower or iPad in September event; remember how many of us thought they were annoucing new iPads in September?)
