Apple shows off iPad Pro, 'the biggest news in iPad since iPad' | Cult of Mac - iPad Pro’s stylus, which will be called the Apple Pencil, can read position, force, at tilt. And the tablet can tell the difference between the stylus and your finger, so it will read twice as often when the Pencil is in play for increased accuracy.

I'm actually quite certain that Steve Jobs' 2007 quote was in reference to the stylus design for the Palm. The Apple Pencil has a number of additional sensors which could make it quite interesting and (for myself) quite expensive to lose/replace?
