The probe for the ultrasound app is $1,999!

Very cool app though!

Wow, you win the Apple Kitchen Sink if you win this.
(I know, the exposure is probably more important.)

I like how Moleskine reset their App Store app rating after this was announced (likely to get rid of the overwhelmingly negative response to their subscription pricing).

Geez, on a mac these links open up either iTunes or App Store, besides having a window open in Safari already...

I know, right? I could do without the Watch & AirPods, but I wouldn't mind the other stuff!

Kudos to everyone who won. I use Pixelmator a bit, and it's pretty good. I wonder what it would be like now with Pencilkit?
