Apple’s Black Friday Deals Go Live: Up To $61 Off On iPad 2, $101 Off On Macs

I’m not convinced these are discounts you’ve really been ‘waiting 364 days for’, but Apple’s Black Friday deals have gone live this morning. The prices leaked earlier, but hey.

If you were looking at buying a new Mac, iPod or the latest iPad, now’s the time, even if the discounts aren’t really that big in terms of percentages. You can also save some cash on a bunch of accessories, ranging from peripherals to iPad Smart Covers and even iTunes Gift Cards.

The iPhone gets no Black Friday love.

No worries: there are other gadgets that we think you should look for on Black Friday.

Third-party offerings are also on display on Apple’s site, with some interesting deals: Jawbone’s JAMBOX can be bought for $148 instead of $199.95 (a $51.95 discount) and the lovely Parrot AR.Drone is available for purchase at a price of $248 instead of $299.95 (also a $51.95 cut).
