$499 for the iPad mini?!

It‘s happening…

I was expecting the TV+ montage, but I wasn’t expecting them to spend a bunch of time on iPad and iPad mini. Gotta say that removing the home button from the mini was well overdue. For a small device, it ate up a lot of real estate. And the magnetic pencil is a nice bonus.

I’m half tempted to go back to an iPad mini. But I’m so addicted to the floating keyboard that I’m sticking with what I’ve got.

$599 if you want cellular.

I don't need a cellular iPad. I just hot spot if ever I need it.

I wonder how many millennia it will take before we can design watch faces?

I don't need a cellular iPad. I just hot spot if ever I need it.

I did that for a while, but it never seemed consistent. I like my cellular.

I don’t know what would entertain me more: The new iPhone being “one more thing”, or it not being part of today’s event at all.

All those Watch design rumours were totally wrong!

 

[Alli]

Ooooooo - swipe keyboard on Watch 7!

 

[Alli]

USB-C for the new watch? Goddamn it! Why can’t they choose one and stick with it!

I went back and forth on cellular when I bought my iPad Air. I never needed the cellular so returned it. I mostly use my iPad at home and when hot spotting, I've never had a problem with my Verizon. That's not saying it won't ever be, I just prefer the savings. My phone is cellular & that works for me.

Wait, the watch can tell you your Tennis serve speed??!?!?!?!

I know that flew by so fast I was 100% sure what they were saying, is there a function detecting wrist speed?

Who knew.

Sorry, @Pumbaa - here’s iPhone.

Darn it! iPhone!

Alrighty then. Let’s see if it’s your iPhone or my iPhone!

I am in need of upgrading my iPhone. Almost did last year but waited. My iPhone 6 (surely a collector's item by now), is working fine. But the OS is old and more and more apps aren't available to reap the benefits of upgrades due to my old OS.

That's where I'm at in terms of a full size iPad. I have a 10.5 iPad Pro which is starting to feel vintage-y at this point. So I'm looking at the mini because my mini is even older! Iphone has to settle for back of the line in my budget...

There could be other applications for that functionality……

The “shell” they introduced the new iPhone from is a new concert venue used by the San Diego Symphony. I was reading about it a couple weeks ago and instantly recognized it when I saw it on the screen.
