| Apple TV gets a £20 UK price cut, hinting a new hockey is puck on the way? Posted:  As well as launching its cheapest ever iMac on Wednesday, Apple is giving Brits and Europeans the chance to save some money on it's Apple TV set-top box. The company has knocked £20 off the asking price in the UK, reducing it from £99 to £79. In Europe, it's now 99 Euros, down from 110 Euros. The pricing in the United States remains at $99. The unannounced move will prompt more speculation that Apple is planning to launch a revamped, fifth generation version of the streaming set-top box. Previous rumours have suggested the firm is working on deals with more content providers over more on demand content, with the App Store and iOS games expected to join the fray too. Due an upgradeOther rumours have suggested Siri may make a debut on the next model, while motion controls could also play a part. The Apple TV has not been refreshed for since the March 2012 update that brought 1080p video, so the device once known as Apple's 'hobby project' is certainly due an upgrade. Will we see it in the coming weeks or months? Let us know your thoughts below. |
| Apple just released its cheapest iMac yet Posted:  Apple's online store went down for a short period today, and now we know why - it's updated its iMac line. Apple has introduced a low-power 21.5-inch iMac for the price of £899 ($1,099, AU$1349), reducing the cost of its most affordable model by £150 ($200). The iMac comes with a 1.4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, Intel HD Graphics 5000 and a 500GB hard drive. Of course, those specs can be upgraded if you so wish. And you can still go and buy the previously-cheapest iMac, which clock in at a slightly more powerful 2.7GHz with the same screen size. So why has Apple done this? Plenty of reasons, but to pave way for Retina models later this year would be our bet.
