    I have no choice but to buy the iPad Pro, but for my dad, who has been going on about it for 2 or 3 years now (spawned from rumours and such). It took a while, but we're finally there. He's always wanted a large screen iPad as he deems the current ones too small (his eyesight isn't that good). It'll also have to be the 128gb version too, or whatever it comes with. Didn't see the resolution on it though but I presume it to be the standard retina deal on the iPad Air.

    Hoping the iPhone prices will now drop, my mum's iPhone 4 has recently suffered some wet damage and now it's intermittently turning off, and she's been increasingly interested in getting one.

    Personally I very heavily regret NOT buying the Samsung Tab Pro (their 12.2 inch tablet) during Christmas when prices were slashed by as much as 60% odd. I'm finding myself reading magazines more and more at home on my 7inch Nexus, and can't help but think a Samsung Tab Pro would make my reading more enjoyable (it'll be indoor use only, rather than travel).

    Same price as a SP3, no kickstand, no keyboard, no pen, half the storage space, runs a mobile operating system. What the hell about that says "Pro" to anyone?

    Probably going to wind up with 6S Pluses for the wife and I. Only gripe is they are still using 16gb as the base model to try to get people to buy ICloud storage. So have to get at the very least the mid level version as IOS 8 is almost half that.

    So my friend told me you can now pay 35/mo for an unlocked iPhone that you can upgrade every year and you get full apple support with it. That actually might be worth it...

    Yeah, but fuck t-mobile. I can't drive from Raleigh to Charlotte and stream music without it buffering for about 1/2 the trip.
