Re: Price cuts in store

[Tom Burke]

Looking at the changes in more detail, it seems that the display price 
cuts are a worldwide cut - the US store has these as well. However the 
iBook and other cuts may be a UK/Europe-specific cut. I posted this 
morning (when we were discussing the possible UK price of $500 
pizza-box Mac) that Apple's exchange rate somewhere around $1.55 = �1. 
The new prices change that to about $1.70 or just below ($1.68 in the 
case of the bottom iBook, for example). And US prices are the same as 
they were this morning.

So they may at last have factored the reduced exchange rate in, to some 
extent at least. Though they waited until after Christmas, of course.

I'm not familiar with iPod prices - do they look as if they've changed?

Apple's just released upgraded Xserves and cut some prices. The 12" 
iBook has dropped �50 to �699 while displays have fallen dramatically 
- the 20" from �999 to �699, 23" from �1549 to �1249 and the 30" from 
�2549 to �2099. I think Powerbooks and others are down too.
