    I was wrong. 5k, wow! I wonder what the GPU is.

    This is going to be expensive.

    My girlfriend won't be happy bought a refurb Mini 2 earlier in the week for €340 from Apple. Honestly thought they'd just drop it and keep the Mini as the entry model.

    Why buy an iPad a few days before an iPad announcment in all fairness. If she bought from Apple she has over a week to return it.

    Loving the the new iMac so far. Tempted but surely it's going to be a big price with that screen?

    iMac with 5K display, that's crazy, wait till we see the price...

    I'm guessing €1499 for the base model.

    No and there won’t be. It was updated already a couple of months go. There’s nothing else that can be done with it until Intel get their act together.

    Was hardly going to be cheaper than the previous model.

    Mini going back to being a semi-reasonable price. Yay! I assume they’ll find some way to screw Irish customers, though.

    Mini almost an afterthought right at the end.

    The way he talks about it... "Just 2499"

    That's a lot of money, a great computer I'm sure but that's still so much money.

    Does the new Mini have the A8X chip? Didn't see a mention of it. Would be a major let down.

    2499 for that is a huge bargain, bit disappointed they didn't make a standalone 5K display too as I have the new Mac Pro. Maybe next year....*sobs*

    Previous iPad range pricing on Apple.ie if anyone is looking to compare with the new prices that come out as soon as the store updates itself.

    The Mini has always been an afterthought. We should be grateful they didn’t discontinue it.

    I can’t see there being one until Apple’s full tv offering is ready, which could be another year or two away, or never if the film studios and cable companies have their way.

    First quarter of next year, I guess.
