The Monday after Black Friday has been dubbed Cyber Monday to reflect a large number of online purchases that takes place on that day. As a result, many retailers continue or begin online sales on Monday. Here's a selection of Apple-relevant Cyber Monday sales.
- Zagg - Popular iPhone/iPad accessory maker is offering 20% off Keyboard Cases and 50% off "almost everything else", including their Invisible Shield protection.
- Hex3 - 25% off two of their products with coupon code "Monday25". First is Jaja ($89.99 -> $67.49), a pressure sensitive stylus for the iPad that allows for 1024 levels of pressure. Interestingly, it uses high frequency sound to communicate with the iPad. The other product on sale is the AppTag Laser Blaster ($59.99 -> $45.99) which is an augmented reality gun that you can clip your iPhone to.
- Belkin - Popular Mac and iOS accessory company. 30% off everything with coupon code "CYBER30". Until noon PST.
- Marware - 30% off sitewide with coupon code "CYBERMONDAY2012"
- Das Keyboard - Mechanical keyboard for the Mac. 20% off with coupon code "DASCHEER"
Turns out that even though Zagg’s order page never said my order went through, I now have 3 orders for the exact same thing. Calling them gives you an automated message that says their regular hold times just to talk to someone are 10 to 20 minutes.
I've left them 2 voicemails so far but I haven't heard anything back, and there's no way to cancel orders on their web site.
Looks like I may have to do a charge-back with my bank if I don't hear back from them in the next couple of days.

While we had been expecting a follow-up October Apple event focused on Mac and iPad announcements, it sounds like we might not be getting another event after all. Instead, the pending updates in those product segments could be considered minor enough that they may be announced via press releases.

Thanks, I genuinely appreciate the transparency.
Thanks for the heads-up, MR!
