Apple iPad Pro for Photographers

Apple has just announced the biggest and best tablet screen for the new iPad Pro.  It's about the size of a 13-inch laptop and with the A9x chip and 4 GBs of Ram, it should be faster than 80% of the computers on the market today.  

It is supposed to be able to edit 3 streams of 4K video.  Pretty Impressive for a tablet, but what about storage space?  You can't store too many 4K videos with 128 GBs of internal memory.  Apple is also putting out a pencil and a keyboard to compete with the Surface Pro.  

That all sounds great but would you buy one ($800-$1000)?  What would you use it for?  Do you think it will be useful for Photographers?  

It would be nice if it could replace a laptop, but I think storage memory limitations still hold it back from being a true productivity tool.  Check out this video that does a nice job of describing it's features.
