APPLE appears to be struggling to meet the demand for its brand-new Pencil and Smart Keyboard accessories for the iPad Pro.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apple began sales of its new productivity-focused 12.9-inch iPad this week.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But the Apple-branded accessories for the new tablet, including the Apple Pencil stylus and Smart Keyboard cover, appear to have sold-out.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Customers looking to get their hands on the latest accessories are facing a delay of up to five weeks, it has been revealed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While the 32GB Wi-Fi version of the iPad Pro is listed as shipping within one-working day, the Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard won't arrive for four to five weeks, according to Apple's online store.</div>

Apple is no stranger to its products selling out. Earlier this year, <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/09/apple-iphone-6s-launch-iphone-6s-uk.html">the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus sold in record numbers</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A number of Apple Watch bands were delayed earlier this year after select colours, styles and sizes sold-out.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The news comes days after <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/11/microsoft-surface-book-is-sort-of.html">Apple CEO Tim Cook blasted rival Microsoft's first in-house laptop, the Surface Book</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The CEO dubbed the laptop-tablet hybrid as "sort of deluded" during his promotional tour for the new iPad.</div>

Apple <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/09/apple-iphone-6s-launch-iphone-6s-uk.html">first announced its larger-screen tablet computer – the iPad Pro – back in September</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tim Cook told the whooping crowds gathered in the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco the new 12.9inch tablet was the "biggest news in iPad since the iPad."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The iPad Pro has a 12.9inch screen, packed with more than 5.6million pixels – the highest ever pixel count on an iOS device – and even higher than some of Apple's Retina laptops.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apple iPad Pro – which starts from £679 in the UK – has a 2732 x 2048 resolution, which works out as a Retina-worthy 264pixels-per-inch.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Powering the new iPad is the new 64-bit A9X chip, which Apple says is capable of rivalling most portable PCs.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The new larger iPad Pro is thin and light and boasts a battery life of some ten hours. Apple has also packed four speakers into the new tablet, another first for an iOS device.</div>

The firm has introduced a new stylus for the iPad Pro, dubbed the Apple Pencil, that makes drawing and sketching on the device more fluid and natural.<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Smart Keyboard attaches to iPad Pro’s Smart Connector port, eliminating the need for a separate battery, on/off switch or Bluetooth pairing.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"The early response to iPad Pro from app developers and our customers has been incredible, and we’re excited to get iPad Pro into the hands of customers around the world this week,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing.</div>

"iPad Pro is the most powerful iPad we’ve ever made, giving users the ability to be even more creative and more productive with the epic 12.9-inch Retina display, powerful 64-bit A9X chip and groundbreaking Apple Pencil and new Smart Keyboard."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sadly, all this groundbreaking new technology doesn't come cheap with UK prices starting at £679 for the 32GB model.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you fancy the top of the range Apple iPad Pro with 128GB of internal storage, it'll cost you £899.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apple Pencil lands in your hand for £79 and the Smart Keyboard is available in charcoal grey for £139.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The firm has introduced a new stylus for the iPad Pro, dubbed the Apple Pencil.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The lightweight tech-filled input device, which will be available for purchase separately for $99 – around £65, aims to make drawing and sketching feel more fluid and natural.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apple Pencil has sensors built into the tip to measure both pressure and tilt for a fast drawing experience.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A Lightning connector, housed under a cap where an eraser would sit on a traditional pencil, makes for quick and easy pairing and charging. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apple Pencil also works with popular apps like Mail, Notes, Procreate and Office 365 for iPad, offering new levels of creativity and productivity.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another accessory launched alongside the iPad Pro is a Smart Keyboard. The foldable QWERTY keyboard unfurls to sit beneath, and support, the laptop-sized iPad. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div><iframe width="640" height="378" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/aBYWGjIzvyw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A new connector, dubbed Smart Connector port, transfers data and power between the keyboard and the iPad so you don't need to have to think about charging the keyboard, or pairing it with Bluetooth.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Smart Keyboard, which starts from $169 – some £110, uses the same technology Apple developed to shrink the full-size keyboard in its lightweight new MacBook netbook.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“iPad Pro is the most advanced and powerful iPad we have ever made," said Phil Schiller, Apple’s Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Its beautiful and large 12.9-inch Retina display has 5.6 million pixels and provides an immersive experience for content and apps. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
