Apple Posts Full-Length iPad Media Event Video

I hate Tim Cook. The pricing for the new iPads is a disaster, and he has some nerve attempting to sell the iPad 2 for $400. And what is up with the "Air"? Was there really a reason for that?

They reduced the weight of the iPad by 30% and they want everybody to know it just by the name I guess. A wilder guess is that they will release an iPad Pro later just like the MacBook.

----------

Disappointed in the following:

1. No retina air (maybe when the new ones are released in the summer?)
2. No 256 GB SSD starting as the lowest
3. No wi-fi calling support yet for t-mobile or any carrier for ios 7
4. No 32 GB start on ipads

What I'm excited about:

1. iPad mini 2 retina
2. iPad air
3. Price reduction and upgrades to the macbook pros.

The last being the most loved by myself, family, and friends.

1. Do you truly expect Apple to update the MacBook Air twice in just 4 months?
3. Do you mean Facetime audio?

----------

Great on the iPhone I'm sure but I bet most people couldn't care less if it was on the iPad. I would not want to pay more for a totally useless item on my next iPad!

You won't pay more if it has Touch ID.

All I can say is that in Apple's standard, he is just not good enough. And without Steve now, if they don't quickly find someone brilliant to add to the marketing team, Apple will very much be like their keynote today, repetitive and predictable.

Craig!

Air is not Pro!
By Apple calling this the Air almost gives away that they are going to release a Ipad Pro one day. There have been rumors they might make a bigger one for a while!

They really need the Mac OSX guy to just give the whole Keynote. Everyone else is scary bad.

Very disappointed. Ok spec upgrades and a retina display on the mini, is that it? Just like the iPhone event Apple is living on past glories.

I kept thinking new Apple TV concept, new watch, come on folks the engineers can only keep shrinking these things and making them so fast. Are the product engineers asleep?

I strongly disagree.
Do you want them to reinvent the wheel every year?
