329? Get the fuck out of here, Apple.

 

[Chinner]

iPad 3 off the market? Weird.

yeah looks like it?

 

[KingKong]

man the iPad 3 update was kind of a weird thing. Dunno why they didnt just wait until March

 

[Aaron]

If they're going to update the ipad every six months, I'm never going to buy a new one. No way am I chasing that dragon. It's fucking stupid.

 

[Polari]

Where's your Nexus 7 comparison slide on price, Phil?

 

[xxracerxx]

Well at least all my Apple products can just be tossed in the recycling bin.

 

[ckohler]

Should be $199. They stumbled.

 

[ZedIndyLil]

Nope. Not the price I was hoping for.

 

[LCfiner]

damn. I was totally wrong about the price.

that price sucks, lol

 

[noah111]

And the iPad 2 is sticking around; so dumb.

 

[jokkir]

LOL man at those other config prices

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

Holy shit at those prices.

It's just funny how no one else does it, nor have apple in the past.

A device should stand on it's own legs, a segment of it's unveiling shouldn't be devoted to how it's got a bigger screen than one of it's competitors.

It's clear that this was thought up as an Anti-nexus 7, which isn't how things should be made, nor is it how apple made things in the past.

Naturally, they are selective in which comparisons they focus on because they actually want to sell iPads...

 

[Hybrid897]

Er? That's not as competitive as I would have liked. The kindle fire Hd is $200 and has a better screen o-o

 

[Reave]

Wow, in all seriousness, that pricepoint makes all that iPad mini vs Nexus 7 dick-waving completely ridiculous.

 

[badcrumble]

REALLY weird that they aren't retiring the iPad 2.

Apple needs to kill the old connector ASAP.

 

[Jin]

Apple has gone berserk with their Apple Tax. $329 wtf...

 

[Darko]

when did they announce the 4th ipad..

 

[ShirAhava]

$329 NANI?????????????

ipad3 off the market ahahaahaa

 

[Tiktaalik]

Looks like a great looking product but I'll wait around for iPad mini 2. Would have considered it at that price only if it had Retina.

Huge.

Huge applause.
11:08:37 AM PDT
Tears of joy.

Fucking The Verge lol

 

[megarockexe]

With the Activision tactic Apple is employing, it would be silly to even consider purchasing an iPad Mini at that price.

 

[plainr_]

yeah no.

 

[TheChewyWaffles]

LOL $330. Fuck off apple.

 

[FStop7]

At $329 I think I'd rather get a Nexus 7 and save some money or spend the extra $170 and got a full blown iPad 4.

 

[kharma45]

$329 for 16GB iPad mini vs Nexus 7 32GB at $249 next week then.

 

[CrankyJay]

Lol olio,olololololooololo

That means Apple failed...

 

[Yaboosh]

People shocked at Apple pricing? You shouldn't even be in these threads unless you're prepared to overpay

Their tablets and phones are usually quite competitively priced. It is their computers/laptops that are always ridiculously priced.

 

[Bboy AJ]

LOL at $329!! What a fucking joke. DIAF Apple

 

[Vano]

Wtf... for that price i better buy the Ipad 4.

 

[Lonely1]

$329? Why shitting at the Nexus so much then? Will keep my Note.

 

[grebby]

Their comparison with the Nexus 7 became completely pointless with that price-point, come the fuck on lol.

 

[Chris R]

when did they announce the 4th ipad..

20 mins ago.

Wanna see what the price is on the 3rd gen iPads though so I know what to price mine at to sell it :|

 

[Anticitizen One]

cute commercial. This thing is gonna be a gamechanger

 

[grimshawish]

Guys its $329 for an Apple product; thats what the market will care about.
Still awful; but not Kaz pricing.

 

[saelz8]

That's a bad price.

 

[dark_chris]

They shoulda reduced the price... and people will go out and buy it anyway.

 

[Prezhulio]

i can't believe they still sell a 16gb ipad2 for $399, they must make a killing off of that (more-so than usual high ticket price)

off that diagram...where the hell does that put the value proposition of an ipad 3? edit: oh, you can't buy one anymore

 

[Enco]

One more thing.. iTunes 11.

Pls appl

 

[KissVibes]

You guys promised me a $199 price point. liars.


$329 is still too much, especially if Google really does put out the $99 Nexus this year. Guess I'll be getting an Android tablet until Surface Pro hits.

 

[DJ_Lae]

Meh. Expected refresh of the 13" Pro, unnecessarily thin iMac, half-year lifespan for the iPad 3, overpriced iPad Mini.

Great conference.

 

[Darko]

Er? That's not as competitive as I would have liked. The kindle fire Hd is $200 and has a better screen o-o

but it isnt a ipad.

 

[sikkinixx]

Cute ad

 

[The_Joker]

best ad ever

 

[Anton Sugar]

Oh Verge.

11:08:47 AM PDT
Huge.
11:08:45 AM PDT
Huge applause.

Tears of joy.

 

[BertramCooper]

The price is totally absurd, but we all know people will eat this bullshit up.

 

[acheron_xl]

That's a bad price.

Dropping it will be a huge applause line in a future keynote.

 

[MDSLKTR]

It will....watch.

 

[Raistlin]

$659 for the top end rev







HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[The Chef]

I dont get it. What price was everyone expecting to see? $199?

 

[Hoo-doo]

iPad 4 was just to get the entire lineup clean of devices with the old 30 pin connectors.
