[HEXUS]

Apple also launched a 27-inch 5K screen iMac and OS X Yosemite.

Still no 12 and 15 inch iPad Air with 4K. So not buying.

And still waiting for Guild Wars 2 to come out on iPad.

4k on a tablet. Are you on crack? I would prefer a slightly lower resolution and much longer battery life.

I must admit that the new 5k iMac looks lovely though.

>.> You've made three comments in the forums, two of them referencing Guild wars. You're name, GWP, could stand for Guild Wars Please.

GUYS WE HAVE A SPY.

On topic:

Meh to the iPads. The 5k iMac is fairly cool though! And the whole ios rubbing shoulders nicely with mac osx is appealing.

New iPads don't seem very interesting.

The iPad Mini 3 is very laughable though. Did they really just slap on a touchID sensor and call it the iPad Mini 3? I would have thought that they'd put in the A8X chip at least.

5k iMac is impressive though.

Will be interesting to see how pokey the M295 is. There wasn't a massive performance hike between the 680GTX and the 780 in the last gen. You would hope there's a fairly big leap in order to drive that screen!

Like others have mentioned - 4K on 12" or 15" screen is completely pointless.

Laughable to think that the Mini 3 is a Mini 2 with the TouchID sensor added, for $100.

Those in the market for a "mini" tablet might best be served to go for a iPad Mini 2 at £239 or a Nexus 7 when the prices crash. The Nexus 9 looks like it might be around the £299-£319 price range.

I think their problem is that too many people saw the air as an expensive luxury, or even more so, over the mini, since they both offered the same performance and the mini had a higher ppi screen. The air seemed to be a silly buy unless you needed the bugger screen. Now, however, there are more valid reasons to buy it over the mini. I would have thought, however, that they'd have put an A8 on it? Leave the A8X to its' big brother.

I'd be willing to argue that that's not actually news.
