Is that all a little too soon? I mean, it’s May 7th now…..

The old poll finished last night, with some interesting results. 29% of people only bought an iPhone because of the price drop, while 18% would have bought one anyway.

Our new poll asks:

What do you want most from the new iPhone ?

It’s been coming for some time, but today Apple finally updated its iMac line. With CPU bumps and beefier graphics, today’s iMacs cement the line’s position as the best all-in-one computer going.

Specs are:


The new 20-inch 2.4 GHz iMac, for a suggested retail price of $1,199 (US), includes:

The latest poll has ended, with only 52% of voters saying they WILL upgrade to any 3G iPhone that Apple release. Perhaps the influx of new buyers has skewed the results, I’m not sure.

I’ll be putting up a new poll tomorrow.

Hot on the heels of lower pricing in the UK and Germany, it appears France may also see a lower price point for Apple’s wonder-phone.

According to a report from French business daily Les Echos, Orange are set to start subsidising the iPhone in the same way 02 and T-Mobile do in the [...]]]> http://www.the-iblog.com/2008/04/18/france-to-see-iphone-price-drop-too/feed/ 0 appleiphoneschool logo contest – last week! http://www.the-iblog.com/2008/04/18/appleiphoneschool-logo-contest-last-week/ http://www.the-iblog.com/2008/04/18/appleiphoneschool-logo-contest-last-week/#comments Fri, 18 Apr 2008 14:19:12 +0000 Oliver Haslam http://www.the-iblog.com/?p=358 Yeah not really news, but I like what Doug and Brooke do over there, so here’s a quick plug.
