MacVoices #23281: MacVoices Live! - Who Is The New Apple Pencil For And How Do You Choose? (1) This MacVoices Live! session starts out by recognizing the 18th anniversary of MacVoices and the genesis of the show. The topic quickly turns to the new USB-C Apple Pencil. David Ginsburg, Jeff Gamet, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Jim Rea, Ben Roethig, Eric Bolden, Mark Fuccio, Kelly Guimont, and Brittany Smith reveal which Apple Pencil they have, whether they have an alternative to the official product, and what their use cases are.
