I'll tell you what else I think ....
@ Steve Kelly
... And the shops will be sold out in the first half a day.
Apple ARE taking the piss, absolutely, but what do they care when fanbois will be rocking up anyway.
Suckers!!!
Mmmwaahhh, ha, ha, haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
Backhanders
I'll bet you the school (or the headteacher) has been offered a commission by Apple, or a reseller, for any units sold.
Kids these days
"while younger players will get to game the way their dads did. "

Can't wait for the useles stats to come out!
Wow, with this you can store 437,500 songs, or 2.5million photos or 104 days worth of video!

Copyright?
As an owner of a few half successful website businesses, this doesn't make me happy at all. Does this mean that people can read more than a 2 line snippet and no longer need to visit my website? The current snippet is important as it perhaps gets potential customers hooked enough to visit. From there it's MY job to get people to stay, look around and perhaps buy from me.
Why the fuck should a SEARCH ENGINE, provide more than they need to, and potentially turn my customer away before they've reached the door?

Ummm, since when did more megapixels mean better quality?
Funny
I use version 0.2.149.30 and it didn't work for me. I can see the normal URL in the address bar. Not Phished.
They can do whatever they like
It's their homepage, their browser, their company.
They can break the 'rules' whenever they like, why is this story upsetting people?
Geography not your strong point?
@ AC above ...
Ummm, that would be the MIDDLE East where the cables were cut.
