    What happened to the new Mac Pro rumor? I thought that would be a definite update.

    It will probably get a silent update when the store comes back up. Apple aren't going to waste time announcing it on stage if it's just a spec bump.

    Siri for iPad, Facebook integration confirmed. Maybe now they'll release a decent app.

    Those new call features are really going to be great. So easy to ignore somebody till later on now. Do not disturb too. LIKE!

    Just catching up. Siri can now do restaurant searches outside the US, which makes it useful at last.

    Offline reading list. Instapaper and its various imitators are in trouble.

    Excellent feature! Passbook? Can't imagine it'll be useful for Ireland.

    It would be so useful though. Bloody loyalty cards annoy me.

    Why wouldn't a cinema chain use it?

    EDIT: Ryanair would love it. Apparently you can scan with a phone at Dublin airport anyway.

    Nope. You'll need Google Maps for that.
