My sister literally just purchased her new Macbook Pro several days ago. Can we still qualify for this? I would be seriously pissed off if they wouldn't allow us to get in on this.

They won't. Think it was stated earlier in this thread.

If you ordered it from Apple, cancel the order and wait for the deal to show.

May Be A Deal To You - But I For One Can't Support A $100 Per Month Bill

That would be a nice deal!

This is one reason our country is in the situation it's in. Any parent that
would give their child an iPhone or support them having one,
which most likely would get lost, damaged or stolen,
& approve them committing to an $80 to $100 per month phone bill is plain crazy.
They need a Metro Pcs or other regional provider that offers unlimited minutes, Internet & text messaging for $40 to $45 per month..

Well, if you add them on to a family plan, then the iPhone only costs $9.99 + $30 a month. That doesn't include texting, but even with unlimited texting that doesn't come anywhere close to $100 a month.

Sure, if the child has their own account, it would be quite a bit more expensive, but I would guess that a lot of teens/college students may just be additional lines on their parents' accounts, which is more cost-effective.

Well sucks that there's no iPhone included, but still good to know it's actually happening tomorrow. I know plenty of people who have been asking about it.

White MB 2.13GHz vs. 2GHz, 160GB HDD vs. 120GB, 800MHz DDR2 vs. 667MHZ DDR2.

So when is the low end unibody CPU speed being updated? That was a pretty small but welcome update to the White MB. Should be interesting to see the slight changes to the speed of the machine.

Sorry but I'm NEW to the MAC world......

Can you get BOTH the ipod rebate ($229) and the printer rebate ($100) if all purchased together on 1 receipt?

Thanks!

Yes. Blah. 10 minutes after the answer. I guess I shouldn't have gone to get that fax. :rolleyes:
