Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

I don't really get the point ? isn't it just a laptop without a physical keyboard ?

I prefer a proper keyboard

How do you know you do?

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

There must be more to this. They kept us waiting for 50mins for iPhone updates, I'm expecting a 'Just one more thing...'

Ditto.
Im bored already.

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

How do you know you do?

Because my iphone has a virtual keyboard and for proper browsing etc I'd prefer a macbook.

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Is it just me or has the engadget feed going drunk?

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Meh, I sometimes play games etc. Guess it would be hard to use for that plus I guess that's not really the idea of the ipad. It does look kinda cool. Just prefer the idea of a macbook.

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

MBP is just fine.

 

[m4rkie23]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

64gb. nice

 

[cadab]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

10 hours battery life is pretty good tbh

edit: a month of standby life!!

 

[Mike_182]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

10hrs battery. Fcuk.

 

[m4rkie23]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

engadget is back up.

10 hours of VIDEO...that is impressive

 

[Jason_E]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

engadget is back up!

EDIT: Ah beaten to it.

 

[Revels]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

A month of standby?! LOL!

I bow down tbh. Now tell me the price and when I can have it.

 

[Mike_182]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Card at the ready...

 

[Dansta]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Nah not for me
I like the protection a laptop gives the screen.. an actual keyboard... and the angle at which the screen sits when its on your lap... I mean can u imagine chilling in bed with that thing sliding about trying to balance on your knees whilst typing/fapping one out? no thanks

 

[m4rkie23]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

double pixel full size apps.

 

[cadab]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Pretty cool that all the iphone apps will work, but tbh i'd want a brand new facebook app, otherwise your just wasting all that new space.

It probably levitates.

 

[Jason_E]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

There will probably be a lot of iPad only apps.

 

[Tom]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

This is gonna be cheaper than i thought. ALOT cheaper.

 

[m4rkie23]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

iHope so

 

[Revels]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Notice it's not just got a black background either. That means you'll be able to change it. Which is ace!

 

[Schweppy]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Its gonna be at least iphone priced...£500-600.

Pointless IMO

 

[Mike_182]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

£550-£950, 16GB to 64GB.

My guess...

 

[Jason_E]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Jailbroken iPad anyone? Not that there will be much reason too.

 

[Tom]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

£300-500

 

[Feirny]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

LOL at there being facebook groups for it already.

 

[Munson]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Mike, no way will it be the same price as a 13" MBP. Apple are smarter than that.

 

[m4rkie23]

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

£300 i will buy one.

Re: Apple Event 27th Jan

Oh iWant!!

Do you reckon you could use an external hardrive with one? ie could it replace my crappy vista laptop?
