    Could price drops be the theme of the day?

    Cheaper iPad 5 maybe?

    The non-Retina iPad Mini maybe. But otherwise doubtful. The Retina MBPs have been dropping in price with every refresh in order to replace the old MBPs.

    I wonder, everything has dropped so far, even the pro!

    I'm not a mac person but I fell on love with that trashcan of a mac pro months ago. I think its smart and sexy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,088 ✭✭✭fjon


    Did they mention if the 15" MBPs are thinner as well, or only the 13"?


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 14,998 Mod ✭✭✭✭whiterebel


    I wonder will they build the mac pro in Cork?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,359 ✭✭✭DubDJ


    Had a few bad freezing gaps in the stream just there which means i'm a little behind of the updates now.

    Only the 13-inch, which was previously a bit thicker than the 15-inch. I assume they are both about the same now.

    I hope these iWork/iLife updates are free.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,160 ✭✭✭shanec1928


    stream has got real bad now! some of the updates so far have been top quality


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,531 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    Serously, do people really use Garage Band, they show it every bloody year!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,359 ✭✭✭DubDJ


    I hope these iWork/iLife updates are free.

    Surely they have to be since they now made iWork and two of the iLife apps free. Plus it seems mostly a design overhaul.

    They are only free for new iPhone/iPad owners. But hopefully...

    I know lots of people who do. I'm looking forward to having Session Drummer, until now it has only been available with Logic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,359 ✭✭✭DubDJ


    He mentioned 64bit and then said iPhone or iPad so it'll definitely be a 64bit chip in the new iPad.

    iLIfe is Free on new iOS devices.

    They seem to think it's iChristmas.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 22,679 CMod ✭✭✭✭Sad Professor


    He didn’t mention a price, so I assume they are free update for people who already purchased them.

    Starting at 3 grand. Hopefully they'll have a fuller set of prices on the applestore after this bunfight. The spec/price permutations are going to be pretty convoluted. Good thing the OS is free, eh?

    Wow, hence the title.

    Cool! Wasn't expecting it to be free.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,531 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    This collobartion feature in iWork looks good.

    Does anyone predict discontinuation of the iPad 2? Been meaning to order one for weeks in case it was discontinued today and the day crept up on me! think I should order one on amazon before they disappear?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,359 ✭✭✭DubDJ

    Why on earth would you want an iPad 2?

    It won't be able to keep up with future developments.
