I wish they could get a good "pencil" type device for the ipad air 2. I would have one for sure. As for the surface, and many other PC based touch devices, I find them great for drawing, and manipulating using the pen and touch interface. The main reason I do not have apple computers is touch. If they ever come out with a touchscreen MacBook and imac, I will probably have both. Until then, NOPE. IOS 11 looks pretty killer however!
