There may be no new iPad Pro in 2022 - and we're blaming the iPad Air

The iPad Pro (2022) was one product we expected to show up at the Apple March Event and it didn't - instead, the iPad Air 5 debuted with quite a few features that seemed relatively Pro-tier.

There might not be a 2022 iPad Pro though. This comes from analyst Ross Young, who tweeted "I have insight on the 12.9" MiniLED iPad Pro as well. It is doing really well. They don't need to do one at 11". Don't expect it this year."

The wording is vague, so it's not clear if the 'it' referred to in the last sentence is the 11-inch or 12.9-inch iPad Pro. But since both generally debut at once, the point is moot - don't expect a new iPad Pro in 2022.

Oh, and a possible interpretation of the tweet is that you shouldn't expect a 12.9-inch mini LED iPad Pro this year, but could see one with a different display... except the iPad Pro (2021) comes with mini LED, at least for the larger 12.9-inch model, so seeing an LCD or OLED one wouldn't make sense.

The tweet also suggests that, while the large iPad Pro might retain its mini LED panel next year, the 11-inch version might not get an upgrade to that screen tech - that's despite a few leakers suggesting such a jump up would happen.

Analysis: blame the new iPad Air

A new iPad Pro might not arrive in 2022, and it really doesn't matter, because we've already got the new iPad Air.

Not only do newer Air tablets look like Pro ones and come with similar features, including compatibility with the Apple Pencil stylus, but the newest fifth-gen version has the same desktop-level M1 chipset that we've seen in the 2021 iPad Pros.

Not only is the iPad Air a handy Pro doppelganger, but it's actually cheaper, and smaller too which makes it a better fit for backpacks. 

So a new Pro doesn't make sense right now, not until Apple has found a way to improve over the 2021 models. And since there's no M2 chip just yet, we can't see much more it can do right now.

What Is the “System Volume Information” Folder, and Can I Delete It?

What Is the “System Volume Information” Folder, and Can I Delete It? On every Windows drive—even external USB drives—you’ll find a “System Volume Information” folder. You’ll only see it if you have Windows set to  show hidden files and folders , but it’s always there. So what is it for? Why Can’t I Open the Folder? On drives formatted with  the NTFS file system , this folder’s permissions are set to prevent everyone from accessing the folder, even users with Administrator permissions. Double-click the folder and you’ll see an error message saying the “location is not available” and “access is denied.” This is normal. That’s because Windows uses this folder for certain system-level features. The permissions are set to prevent users—and programs without the appropriate permissions—from tampering with the files inside and interfering with important system functions. What Is It For? Among other things, Windows stores  System Restore points  in the System Volume

With no good Black Friday iPad deals, it's time to turn to the Android side , DigiTech Geeks Mobile Computing News

With no good Black Friday iPad deals, it's time to turn to the Android side The Black Friday iPad deals are never any good, but in 2021 they've somehow failed to clear that laughably low bar, and we've still been surprised by just how poor the Apple-tablet discounts are this year. Seriously – we're talking just $50 / £50 off super-power iPad Pros , and sometimes no discounts at all on entry-level or Mini tablets – and this outlook very likely won't change for the Cyber Monday iPad deals . If you were wanting to buy a new iPad in the Black Friday sales, it might seem like you're plum out of luck. (Not in the US or UK? Scroll down for deals in your region). It's not all bad news though, not as long as you're willing to try new things (and aren't committed to the Apple ecosystem already). That's because there are a few worthy tablet Black Friday deals on Android slates that make them much, much more tempting than an iPad. Sure, sure, sure: i
