    What are we expecting to see?

    New iMacs for sure, a refreshed iPad Pro line up, AirPods 3(not pro's) and the official launch of iOS 14.5?

    Teaser of iOS15 won't happen until WWDC

    No AirPods I think. Definite on IOS 14.5 which I can't wait for if only for unlocking my phone with a mask on!

    Cant be bothered with that. I've a couple of podcasts on the go & between those & audio books (& a little music), my podcasts are about a week behind anyway, some of them have a premium service to receive them ad free a week in advance,

    Always wants to download the wrong episode of a show, play episodes out of order etc. No matter how I change the settings.

    I also don't get the difference between clicking + to add one to your library, and clicking Subscribe. It seems counter intuitive.

    Honestly never experienced that, I guess I've been lucky. I've seen others complain about it. It'd be in my top five most used apps & never anise thankfully.

    The plus thing is just adding one episode rather than subscribing to the entire season/series

    New iMac starting at $1299

    Be strong, be strong....you don’t need one.

    Would the 24inch be a big step down from the current 27inch tho? 🙈
