Apple sent the iPad back to school, literally. At an event at Chicago’s Lane Tech High School on Tuesday, Apple unveiled a new model of its entry-level tablet designed to appeal to teachers and students.
The new iPad got a speed boost and support for Apple’s Pencil stylus, but keeps its familiar design and $329 price. The changes are welcome, but stop short of a full-on assault on the simple — and inexpensive — Google Chromebook laptops that have stolen Apple’s thunder in American schools.
