I can't wait till we get a Linux iPad Pro

  I’m afraid most of the Linux classic applications will not be designed with multitouch inputs in mind. It may improve eventually, with newer software being created.

    But with a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, could be a compelling form factor

      If you count size of all the devices is not that compelling anymore.

    It's open, we will add the gestures.

  iPads don't have the open bootloader of the Macbooks that would allow that.

    That's an obstruction, but usually someone eventually finds a way around that part. But we never get a usable OS for the hardware even if we can run arbitrary code. We have been able to run linux on older iphones for a while now but I'm not sure it's ever been a useful thing to do.
