Tim Cook started off by saying that 400 million accounts and 600 million apps are on the app store, of which 225,000 are iPad-capable. That was hardly any news compared to the rest...

Mac stuff:
  • At about 10:16 A.M, Tim Cook announced the new Macbook line and OSX Mountain Lion updates
  • He gave the stage to Phil Schiller, who started off with the Macbook Air
  • The Air recieved a major boost; it got upgraded to Ivy Bridge. Up to 2Ghz, 3.2Ghz with turbo boost
  • The integrated graphics are 60% faster; with a maximum SSD capacity of 512GB!
  • They added USB 3.0, and updated the facetime camera
  • The Macbook Pro got updated as well to Ivy Bridge, with 2.7Ghz without, and 3.7Ghz with, turbo boost
  • It got updated to USB 3.0 as well, but now the sizes are 13 and 15 inch only :(
  • Alongside this, Apple released another Macbook Pro, with a Retina Display, really thin body, 16GB ram, and more!
  • Dictation, Safari, blah blah blah I don't have time for this
At this time the stock went up 0.5% :)

Now iOS recieved a part in the show as well...
  • iOS6 was announced, and Apple ditched Google Maps for its own 3D navigation app!
  • Siri can tell sports scores now, and it learned more about restaurants
  • And movie star questions, for those gossipers out there :)
  • It can finally launch apps!
  • And Siri's on the new iPad
That is all.

    I have the FiiO X1-ii, and love what it does, but the battery life is kinda ass and the sluggish, unresponsive menu makes me regret my purchase a little.

    good morrow

    I love Gundam but seed is not among my favourite series. Great gundams and soundtrack, but the characters... Ugh

    Still better than the latest trash like Witch of Mercury

    My Playasia order is taking forever, and all I ordered was a physical copy of the Lunar 1+2 remasters.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Did I over-pay compared to MSRP? Yes. Was it terribly much more? Not really.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I ordered it from Spain, cost me 45€, arrived on release day :P
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    It's not restricted to any region though, don't see a reason to order lunar from them.
  • Delerious @ Delerious:
    Still need to get my copy at some point. That, and I still need DQ3.
  • Delerious @ Delerious:
    Gotta work on my backlog first, though.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    No stores around me have it, and I wanted the version with ALL the languages on it.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    I'll be ordering the Japanese copy of FFX + FFX-2 from there as well soon, as you get both games on cartridge instead of 1 game with a download code.
