Nice way to post. A quick FYI, the pencil seems to charge much faster via connecting to the iPad pro than using the adapter and a charger. Also no significant loss of charge on the iPad pro.
Here it is compared to my iPhone 6 Plus.Wow-that looks awesome Sci! It looks so big!

That's great! Have you run the battery down yet.
No. It was about 80% out of the box, and it is only down to 61% now.

Thanks for the tips.
Based on the size Sci, will this be kept strictly at home? For me, I think it would be too big to travel around with.
I did use it in the food court at a local shopping mall this morning.
I carried it in the neoprene padded sleeve I use for my MacBook Pro, it fits perfectly.You're brave! With the size, I'd be afraid of walking around with it outdoors!

I've been lugging my around too. Especially if I'm going somewhere that I expect to spend a little time. With a case/stand and a backpack, it's not much differern't from how I used to lug around my 12 inch laptops (back in the day).
So, a step back in portability, but a huge boost in power and flexitilty.
Hold in mind that if it were not for the Pencil, I would have probably stuck wiht the smaller iPads. I'm not a Pro, but the ability to doodle and take handwritten notes (accurately) has been worth it so far.
I see. So far, I haven't seen a lot of people with iPad Pros out and about, partly because of its new release. However, I see what you mean when comparing it to a MacBook. Currently, my MacBook Air only has about 4-5 hours of charge, before the battery needs a re-charge. Wish that it could hold a charge of ~ 10 hours like my iPad Air 2!

Very Very Nice, Sci! I like your case cover!

I saw a guy with the Pro the other day at Starbucks... I had mine too. But that's the only one I've seen in the wild except for in stores of course. You're right though... I mean compared to all the 9.7 inch iPads I see all over the place it's rare to see the Pro.
As for battery, I'm pretty satisfied with the battery life I've been getting. Lasts me about 3-5 days of light usage or about two days of heavy use. My idea of heavy use may be different than others though.
Thanks. I've still got about 3 weeks to go before I receive the Keyboard Cover, though.
