I’d love to know how the iPad line will evolve. For example: will pressure-sensitive stylus input ever happen? Eschewing stylus input in the early days was a thoughtful move. Perhaps it’s time to relax the restriction and thus enable richer media creation applications.

I agree. Categorical opposition to using a stylus with iOS devices is unnecessary—they are, for a number of purposes, incredibly useful. The OS should be designed for touch input specifically, but that doesn’t mean styli should be unsupported.
