No delays, Apple must be sitting on a lot of M4 chips
Or they still haven't overcome the 2018 iPad Pro gap...for most people that aren't digital artists or video editors, this iPad will do nothing more than any of the 2018-2022 iPads, which people already bought or are now available for much cheaper than the $999 starting price of the new iPad Pro.

I want one...but they will have to convince me at WWDC. For my use case, basically nothing will be improved except the screen quality (coming from an 11") The power is overkill, the weight/thinness is negated by the fact that it sits in the keyboard stand most of the time. The pencil squeeze gesture might be nice but I use my pencil maybe once a week.

Seems like a hard sell for Apple this year. Vision Pro and now iPad. Initial demand will be good, but after it dies quickly. I’m going to the store today and will see how much of a line there is.

Honestly I've never seen a line for a new iPad release.

There were for the very first 2 iPads. From the 3rd there isn't any queue since. I still have a photo of Sydney Apple store queue for iPad 2 ?

Look around (Geizhals, Idealo), there are already deals available here in Austria so I suspect it is the same in Germany!
There are some with 50-90 EUR less than Apples price, but I do like the Apple Store experience ;);)
