Re: Cheaper Panels??

[Jon Svenson]

A few weeks ago, Apple Canada dropped their prices on everything at the 
Apple Store. The reason being the US dollar had fallen so much, if you 
bought a Dual 1.42GHz PowerMac from the Canada Store, you were paying 
almost $1000 CD more than if you bought the same machine from the us 
store. I don't know if that's why there doing it in Australia, but it 
seems plausible.

G'day from the land of Oz.

Great news about the G5's, but I wonder what else is in store for us.

Today I got a promo email from an Aussie store, NextByte ( 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ). They stated that Apple (presumably only 
Australia) is offering an 'up to $600 rebate' on flat panels (no 
mention of it on the Apple stores site). A 23" panel retails for Aus 
$4096, so it's a reasonable amount off.

Apple Oz don't offer many deals, so I'm wondering what's going on. A 
soon-to-be-announced drop in overall prices is my guess, and perhaps 
the 30" panel touted a few  months ago is on the horizon. Or, they're 
overstocked, and upgraded models are on the way.

Any other guesses as to the motivation?

Santa
