Different markets so won't make a difference, will be less than £350 and all depends on the spec. If they put a retina screen on it,1080p FF camera and the A6 you would expect it to retail at more than if it had an old screen/chip and no camera.
At a guess it'll be high spec'd and sit around the £250-300 price point.

Anodised black looks good at first but look how bad the iPhones are, imagine that on a laptop being carried about, would look terrible after a week.
Are you saying Ash is some sort of fanboy?

Ipad minis are awaiting to be announced and currently filtering through systems of electrical wholesalers on the high street. No word on price from my source though as im genuinely not very interested as Nexus 7 32gb is rumoured on the horizon

I thought you said there wouldnt be an iPad mini and you were 100% confident of that?

I did. Nobody can be 100% confident of anything Apple does, especially not anymore, it was my opinion.
Like John says, if they do bring one out it just reiterates the start of Apples decline. No doubt they'll sell millions but being guided by consumers and the market goes against what Apple stood for under Jobs.
Cool renders.

I genuinely believe Apple are reading John's comments and have realised they've made a huge mistake, but it's too late to turn it around. If only they'd listened to John earlier

This is what happens when a company that was founded by an innovator with a vision and desire to make his products the best is taken over by an accountant. It's obvious apple are playing catch up now instead of leading the way. The iPhone 5 is completely against Steve Jobs' design philosophy with the move to a larger screen as is the iPad mini which again is against his design philosophy that a 7 inch tablet would be a flop on the market.

If only John was running Apple, he could of been the new Jobs and saved them from this tragic time.

I could walk in to replace Jobs no bother, getting paid for telling people how stupid they are would be amazing.
