I guess the post title here steals it but this afternoon, after what seems like a long delay, Apple released OS X Lion through the App Store for all to download. The great thing about what Apple have done here is that they are offering Lion for a little over £20 and furthermore you can install it on more than one Mac, as long as it’s yours.
We’ll look at some of the new features of Lion at some point soon.
Also today the Apple Store was updated with new MacBook Air and Mac Mini models. As expected both now have the new Thunderbolt ports and Sandybridge. Processors now start at with 1.6GHz Intel core i5 up to quad core 2.0GHz i7 in the top of the range Mac Mini.
Even more surprising though is the price, the entry level MacBook Air is down to just £729.60 while the Mac Mini starts at £476.40.
We’ll have our hands on these for review VERY soon too!

The Carphone Warehouse are having a purge on signing up business users by targeting local sole traders and SME customers with what it claims is the widest range of phones, tablets, networks and tariffs available.
As well as the networks standard business tariffs, CPW will also offer there own business tariffs which will either be unique to them or cheaper than competitors. And to top things off they will offer a price promise as well as a 14-day coverage guarantee. With the added bonus of Carphones ‘Walk Out Working’ service it seems that small business users really could benefit from visiting Carphone Warehouse to discuss the options available.
We should see some ‘dedicated business areas’ being trialed in stores later this year.

On this weeks show we talk about the our Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo review, the excellent BlackBerry Bold 9900 video that James recorded last week, and the surprise ‘leak’ of Nokia See Ray. Oh, and Matt has a rant about the Apple vs HTC story.
We also have a special guest, Dan Carter from Coolsmartphone.
Gareth is still away this week so there is a bit of mayhem but James and Matt manage to keep Dan’s bad language under control.
