Apple, what just happened?

[themoose]

I thought Apple were supposed to be a fun'lovin' company.

Macbook Air - ok, thin as hell, but what the hell? You can't replace the battery yourself? Can't even open the back?

iPod Touch $20 upgrades for something that should be free on launch! Plus, if you buy a new iTouch now it comes with the upgrades already! You can already get these apps if you jailbreak, too. It's basically Apple saying "---- you, loyal customers."

Time Capsule - £200 500GB hard drive in an apple shell. OK, it's got wifi too, but how much does that thing cost them? £20 max? Probably £10. Overall it'd cost Apple I reckon £40. What justifies the 500% markup?

The only thing I disagree with is the Time Capsule. It's a bit over priced, but only a bit.

With the itouch, that boils my nuts. They were trying to offer an incentive to not jailbreak your itouch, but have failed miserably. I'll keep my itouch jailbroken for now, thank you.

Apple's prices have always been steep - though the Macbook Air does catch my eye. Seems pretty nifty.

was highly disappointed with this macworld, i will also be keeping my itouch jailbroken.

the air has no disk drive. retarded IMO. does look nice though. :P

Yeah...which when I want to use it for playing DVD's away kinda sucks. However, with the SuperDrive thingiemajig, the Pro is only a bit more expensive so I'd go for the Pro I guess.

Sad. Unfortunately I was expecting the imac mini to go under 500$ with more specs. Unfortuntly I didn't get my wish. And I also expected a touch screen desktop.
