    New teaser post from Tim cook. Says "this week" which must mean tomorrow, right?

    I wonder if they'll up the entry price for Macbooks as they did with
    iphone? The free RAM upgrade may no longer be without cost.

    Looking more like the day after tomorrow! What's another day ;-)

    Well we did get two new ipads.

    The entry ipad at £329 is pretty tempting. Also the M3 ipad Air looks good.

    I still haven't replaced my dodgy iPad Mini yet so the entry leveliPad with upgraded memory is rather tempting.

    You were right!

    Plus a surprise M4 Max/M3 Ultra Studio! I wonder why they went M3 Ultra rather than M4? Manufacturing problems?

    “ …. not every generation of M-series chips for Macs will include an "Ultra" chip.”
