Is Apple planning to sell £150 iPad Mini AT A LOSS?

According to The Daily Mail, Apple is planning to launch an assault against the burgeoning Android tablet market by releasing an 'iPad Mini' - at a loss-making price of around £150.

Sources told Apple fansite iMore that the new tablet will launch in October this year, with Apple potentially selling the sub-$250 tablet at a loss in order to leave no room for competition.

The rumor on the street is that the iPhone 5 will be out in September. I wonder if all this talk about a cheap mini-tablet is nothing more than a clever marketing ploy to put people off buying any till October.

Say No to Smart Meters And The Smart Grid

Power companies around the world have been pushing their clients to accept the installation of so called smart meters. These devices would supposedly allow the power companies to more efficiently measure demand, reduce labor costs and allow customers to switch between electricity providers.

What they neglect to tell you is that there are a lot of problems with the smart meters:

• Smart meters consume electricity even when you're not. Guess who pays the bill?
• Smart meters use radio signals to communicate with the the power company. This cause interference with WIFI connections, AM/FM radios, TV remotes etc.
• The additional radio waves and radiation introduced in peoples' homes cannot be considered healthy
• Smart meters are not environmentally friendly. They are fully electronic. They sue more power than analogue meters. They contain more harmful components (heavy metals) that cost more to recycle when the smart meter has to be replaced. Smart meters have to replaced more often than analogue meters. Not to mention all the energy and resources that have to be wasted on replacing fully functional analogue meters by the unreliable and hazardous smart meters.

Smart meters are a scam, sold to the public under the cover of "going green".
