At the company’s annuel conference for software developers on Monday, they also introduced IOS 6 which will include Apple’s own mobile mapping software.
Apple reduced the price of the MacBook Airs by $100 (with some exceptions) and the new, thinner MacBook Pro will start at $1,199 and they announced the models are ready for immediate shipping.
The announcements also included the next version of Apple’s operating system for iPhones and iPads, iOS 6, with more than 200 new features and significant enhancements to Siri.
IOS 6 will include Apple’s own mobile mapping software to compete with software from Google, whose maps have been the default on the iPhone for years.
Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook, world-wide marketing head Phil Schiller and Scott Forstall, Apple’s senior vice president for iOS software, were among taking the stage at the Worldwide Developer Conference.
It’s the most beautiful computer we’ve ever made,” said Apple Senior Vice President Phil Schiller describing the MacBook Pro.
