Start at £499.

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Mike, no way will it be the same price as a 13" MBP. Apple are smarter than that.

Really? Bear in mind that they'd be bucking EVERY trend there is - to take the keyboard away and make it more expensive - just by matching the MacBook price?

gaming:

You can also do motions like sliding two fingers across the screen to throw a grenade.

Another new innovation, drawing a targeting box around enemies and firing on them simultaneously.

They can “interact with the game world in ways that weren’t possible before,” like sliding three fingers on the screen to interact with a door


NICE

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

I don't see the point of it, too big for your pocket and too nice to take out of the house

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

I reckon its going to be same price as an air

No way!

Cheap internals, the air is much much more powerful.

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Even flash memory is cheap now, i reckon they will cut the price of the iPT and this thing starts at $399 in 16gb form.

But if they do that, they'll have to drop the nano too.

Okay, that art thing is ace!

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Not impressed tho.

It will be hard to use flat on a table because it will be at the wrong angle because you'll have to look down at it so your neck is going to cane after a bit so you've always got to find a comfy chair where your knees end up in the right place.

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

No doubt there will be some sort of stand to sit it in.

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Dammit i'm a lazy C*nt. When do they release video coverage of the iGay?

 

[Aluco]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Surely you would only use something that big to play games on at home which begs the question why not just play decent games on a desktop ?
Instead of app store games.

Yes. We know. You don't like it. GOD!

Handbag down!

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Their not even that good quality, its not HD, they are only the same games as iphone but bigger. I love all my apple stuff to bits but even I think its just a bit pointless

Is this being streamed anywhere or is engadget the best option?

 

[Schweppy]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Yes. We know. You don't like it. GOD!

hah. Surely u feel the same. U have an iphone and MBP the same as me...

 

[m4rkie23]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

well obviously apple dont cuz theyve spent $millions developing it





OHH MAN that ereader looks sexy!!!!!!

 

[Aluco]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Ebook reader, if it took off properly and loads of books were avalible that would be good on it.
It has at least one purpose then.

 

[Jason_E]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

I LOL'd at "iBooks". Imaginative.

 

[Munson]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Oh yeah you're right.

That's a very high quality wanking machine to keep in the bedroom though. No?

 

[Mike_182]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Next thing you know, there'll be a Jobserve app...

'iJobs'.

 

[The Ironist]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

It is basically the king of all ebooks and will have a price to match it + another 50% because it all looks nice and made by apple

 

[Munson]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

In all seriousness. As with all things Apple, I bet 5p that using one for a few days will answer all potential questions about its reasons to exist.

 

[m4rkie23]

iWork....hmm this looks interesting

 

[Schweppy]

OK so iWorks pretty cool.

 

[Jason_E]
