Watched live stream on my iPad via HDMI cable.

Just ordered my new Mac mini. Getting the wife an iPad mini pre ordered on Friday.

Little bit disappointed about the iPad 3 being obsolete and discontinued, but  its not a problem. I have no issues with it running like a dream.

The new iMac looks lovely, but I can't say I'm blown away by the specs on it. I'd have really like to have seen Flash storage as standard. It's all about the screen and the graphics.

Love the look of the iPad Mini too - my 3-year-old keeps nicking mine and my wife's, but I'm struggling with the idea of getting him one. Maybe a bit too young!

Never really saw a practical use for the ipad until the last few trips at work, this place has about 12 of them just there for people to use at dinner, or leisure time, and I can finally see a use for one!

Thinking of getting the ipad mini, just for the uber convenience of it rather than lugging about my laptop.
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)

I can see the benefits of the iPad Mini but it depends what you use an iPad for and I would definitely want to keep the larger size screen of my iPad 2.

The new specs on the iMac don't seem that much different from the one I already have. There still aren't many Thunderbolt peripheral devices yet.

I hope the owners of 4g iPad 3's get a free upgrade to the new version that will be compatible with uk 4g like they did with the original iPhone to iphone 3G.

Out dating something after 6 months does take the piss though.

I'm still having major issues with my iPhone 5 my 4th replacement is on its way to me now all due to bad quality if this one is not up to scratch then apple have lost me as a customer.

I have had iPhones since they first came out and never had any issues untill the 5 which is also the first phone they have put the price up on.

it pisses me off that apple said in there advertising that the new ip5 was the perfect size to fit in your hand....just watched the ipad mini advert, guess what they said! they cant both be the right size for one hand!

i know most people are apple suckers and will buy stuff just because they sell it (me included) but we're not thick!

anyway, going off topic. does anybody have one of these?

i really want one (2 actually) to go with my macbook pro 13"...

bloody apple   :fighting:

Yeah, we have those screen for our Mac Pros in the studio. They're awesome, but very expensive, in my opinion.

....Really? Have Apple dropped the CD/DVD disc drive on the iMac? What about loading music CD's?
