Hey all, I'm hoping for some collective wisdom from the MRF experience. I'm getting a small unexpected bonus and was planning to grab a new MBP 16. However my partner let me know that she wants a couple bikes for us. I can't disagree, so I've switched my thoughts to grabbing an iPad and hoping for the release of a 15" Mac Air in the near future. I really don't need the power of a MBP anymore, I just don't want to move to a smaller laptop screen.
I had an original iPad, a 3, and an original Air, which I ended up not really using them a lot for work type productivity. Now, they have the pencil, larger screens, and more powerful processors, while I have a different work role. I've moved from architecting and developing to IT Project Management. I'm thinking of trying the iPad again for extensive note-taking, calendaring, and communications (Zoom, Email, and Office 365). The abilities to digitally archive my hand written notes, convert them to PDF for distribution when necessary, and easily carry the iPad about, rather than a laptop are very appealing to me.
Does anyone have any advice, experience, or comments about which iPad/Pencil, and programs would be suitable? In the distant past I've seen people using Notability and Good Note(?). Any info to get me back into the IOS and iPad world is helpful.
