That's about $60.00 too expensive, considering it's heading towards obsolescence.

That's ridiculous. I can buy 470 regular pencils for the same price.

Those of you complaining about this product being outdated don't really get it. It isn't outdated at all if you own a last-gen iPad. It's the only one that works with it, and it's incompatible with the latest iPad. So it being the old model is completely irrelevant.

All Apple products are outdated.

Except the Watch, but that only works in the U.S.
