    Apple stuff

    More incremental updates to existing products. Why even have a big event, talk about underwhelming.

    The iPad looks like a pretty big refresh though. The CPU/GPU increase is substantial to say the least and considering how slick the current model is, I am really interested to see the new one in the flesh... dropping the weight by a third and making it that thin is pretty impressive.

    However, this isn't worth an event. What else have they announced?

    edit: iPad Mini Retina... about time

    And hold up, OSX is free?

        Don't get me wrong the iPad Air looks nice, I will probably buy one, however they should really start the storage at 32GB at £399.

        I was hoping for a new product completely like TV, glasses, dishwasher etc.

            I'm going for it...

            Wonder how much it'll change battery life. Did someone say it's free?

              It's a very good refresh.

              And I don't even like Apple products...

                WHS

                64 GB of RAM ought to be enough for anybody...

                  It's easier to give away an OS if the hardware has such high margins

                  They still have to make money somewhere, and loads of it

                    It's a package deal - Prada could probably give away a free croc with every handbag purchased and still stay profitable.
