I recently gave using a 2nd gen 11-inch iPad Air as my daily driver, and I gotta say I like it a lot more than I was expecting. I have a big beefy TrueNAS machine at home and run various Linux VMs for dev work, accessed via Tailscale; mosh-ing or ssh-ing in via Blink Shell is pretty much flawless. I can even institute my "Cmd = tmux prefix" trick that I do in iTerm (via mapping hex codes), so for me it's essentially the same dev workflow as my M1 MacBook Air, albeit with a worse keyboard and a smaller screen, but with the added benefit of LTE, which IMO is a fair trade off until we (Tim Apple, please) get LTE on the Mac lineup (not holding my breath). The only thing I've been finding myself wanting is a larger screen and a better keyboard, and the 13-inch could potentially deliver both. It's a pretty appealing device. That said, I of course wish that Apple would just let me treat it like a real computer and not have to connect to Linux VMs to get any work done, but hey, it's still a nice experience if it lines up with your workflow.
