I sold my iPad 6th generation and it's accessories like the keyboard cover, bag etc for enough money to get a new bag for the new Ipad Pro and to fill a need or two that a huge Pro model can't be used for - I bought an iPod touch. Yes, they still make them even though you have to hunt for long time on the Apple site to find them. It's pretty much like it's been for years but that is not a bad thing. I can put it in my bike riding shirt pocket and stream podcasts to my wi-fi riding glasses as I do my longer rides with no problem and without have to drag a suitcase with a large iPad in it behind me.
I also updated my post blur effect plugin of choice, Reel Motion Blur, for Apple's Motion app and it works great, faster than in After Effects it seems. X -Particles plugin for Cinema 4D also updated this past week with some very cool new features I really could have used on some of my past projects. I know, these are all technical things no one but me knows anything about as a rule, but I find it exciting.
Once Affinity Publisher comes out for the tablet, I'll be in a place I rarely get to these days... I'll feel like I have all I need to get what I want to do for work and my personal projects. Nothing I have is the most powerful anything, but it'll good for me to get things done.

Of course I know all those 'technical things,' but that's because it's my job! Can't remember the last iPod I sold. Once, maybe twice a year someone wants one. The iPad Pro is a good machine. I know you'll get good use out of it. Congrats, and I hope you really like them both!
I really love the iPod touch, it's small and when I am away with FaceTime, I use it like a phone to call home etc with no fees. I do wish I had that extra 1000$ to get the i9 chips version of the iMac when my old one exploded but other than that I feel pretty well set up at the moment!
