Hey, this is new service that I didn't see before. Why are the prices in US dollars?

Magnus, I think our Apple IDX should have a link to this Shop page to indicate Emirates prices.

Good catch MacUAE. Funny that they've not informed us about it. Would seem like they would, but perhaps I just missed the email.

Anyway, let's see if EMUG members get a discount there.

I believe this is only for education, but I'll try to double check that.

United Arab Emirates online store all prices listed in AED. Also it says the products ship in 24 hours + free shipping!!!

Update: When I select MacBook Pro the 2.4 ghz hdd is shown at 200 gb after I select it, it shows the hard disk as 120 gb... lol and offers no further options ... any else facing this?

Update 2: Same for the MBP 2.5 ghz 15 in shows 250 gb but gives option of 160 gb....

The prices are quoted are in AED and also I noticed that the prices are lower than quoted in virgin and other iStyle stores.

I believe this is because these are old stocks.
