Apple sure know how to get money from the buyers. The new Macbook looks
gre=
at and some tech but an $80 USB dongle? I don=E2=80=99t know about you,
but=
I would rather have USB ports built in that having to carry around an extr=
a dongle.

Apple Watch
18 hours for the watch. People have been complaining that 24 hours on
exist=
ing smart watches was too little (apart from Pebble of course) so how does
=
18 hours seem ok?
=20
AND, what about those prices. $550 for the steel version. I have an LG G
Wa=
tch R and it only cost me $280 and it's made from stainless steel. An
extra=
$20 and I have a nice black stainless band on it. Have you seen the prices=
for the Apple Watch bands.
=20
It'll be interesting to see just how many of the higher priced models
actua=
lly sell. Android Wear is around 700,000 so far. I guess it will depend on
=
how dedicate Apple fans are and the value they see in it.

Hiya Mark,
=20
I noticed that you mention about a new Macbook =E2=80=98air=E2=80=99, I
nee=
d to re-watch this as I was stuck at the office streaming it to my phone,
b=
ut was this a new =E2=80=98air=E2=80=99 or the relaunch of the
=E2=80=98Mac=
Book=E2=80=99?
I thought I saw a slide at one point that suggested they now have the
macbo=
ok =E2=80=98air=E2=80=99 the m/b =E2=80=98pro=E2=80=99 and new
=E2=80=98mac=
book=E2=80=99 which seemed kinda odd as this is a lighter / thinner than
th=
e existing macbook air.
=20
Maybe this should be the Macbook =E2=80=98Helium=E2=80=99 :) - also
availab=
le in gold :) ?
=20
I=E2=80=99ll wait for the podcast version to download :/
