Ok, we're in, and seated. There's definitely a large object under a black cloak up on stage, it's either a big display (mabe a 30-inch or larger?), or an iMac. We don't see any other products up there.

It's a 30" iPhone Pro. For phone professionals who are always on the sodding phone, yeah?

New iMacs do look rather tasty. $200 price drop for the 24" model too. Hmmmm.

Enough with the iMovie stuff! Just finish up, get the store back up and let me buy an iMac.

I might be able to just afford a 24" now with that price drop. Have to wait for the Swedish store to come up to see local prices though ...

Solid upgrades to the iLife suite, then, and free with every new Mac. Very cool. Looks like they're offering a complete Office replacement with the new Spreadsheet app. Suck it!

Apart from Garageband, which looked like a pile of arse.

Hell apple.com and the store haven't been refreshed yet. Give 'em a chance!

Edit:

It just has.
