In a big first for the company, Apple unveiled the Apple Pencil, available for $99 this November.
The company revealed the product at Wednesday's keynote. For some, this is a revolutionary new product. For most, the Apple Pencil is pretty much just a stylus that costs about $98.50 more than a regular pencil.
But come on, guys; did we really expect Apple's first stylus to cost anything less?
