I'm not even bothered. It is a small update to the iPad but that is all that is needed now.
The iPad started it the iPad 2 refined it and now we get smaller but decent updates to the camera, processor etc.
At first I thought the feed got chopped, such an abrupt ending.. He didn't even say Thank-you or good-bye!
Someone is going to get fired. And somebody else is going to have fun posting a new blooper reel to Youtube.
Pre-orders start on Friday, and start shipping November 2nd (for the wi-fi version)
Wow, that iMac looks amazing and they FINALLY ditched the optical drive...thank you! Looks like i'll be pre-ordering the iPad mini...beautiful little device...
"Its set to have a 1024 x 768 screen resolution instead, simply because its much cheaper to produce and will more than do the job"
So why bother with iPhone in that case???
Yup, iPad 3 owner here, and I'm not bothered at all. It usually takes at least 6 months before developers start making apps that target the power of the new devices, a year before they start making exclusive apps. By the time I feel I need an iPad 4, I'll just go ahead and buy 5.
btw, for the iMac I do think they should have kept an optical drive and added a retina display. Why per se? The whole thing is stationary. I understand why they wanted to remove the optical drive for the MacBook but again this is a stationary device. The rules for a stationary device does not need to be like a mobile device. It doesn't have to be thinner and lighter. It just has to be the most functional.

Those iMacs are beautiful...museum quality design. But not for me. This new design confirms my 2010 is my last one. The fusion drive worries me.
4th gen iPad...they are computers so it's not surprising that another was released in the same year. I will happily use my 3rd generation for another 18 months.
Mac Minis. If there is a mid-range one (I only caught the server and the entry model), all the new tech is definitely a step in the perfect direction for me. Hope they will still be around.
13" Retina? Lovely, but not for me.
iPad mini, pass. Now they've found a way to make the regular size lighter and not compromise the battery life and screen, I'll stick with the 9.7" size.

If they could burn the Apple logo into the grilled cheese top...you would have something there.
I watched the whole thing on my son's ipad with absolutely no problem. I was amazed at the quality of it. Maybe it was an ISP issue you had? I'm in Mexico, by the way and I have cable.
