Come to The Rogue 96.9′s live remote at Connecting Point’s Medford store Saturday – and enter to win a Harley!

We invite you to visit our Medford location this Saturday, between 11 am and 1 pm, for a live remote broadcast by The Rogue 96.9. During the remote, you’ll be able to enter for a chance to win a stunning new Limited Edition Harley Davidson Ember Red Sunglo Deluxe motorcycle (similar to the one pictured), valued at more than $20,000.

Also during the broadcast: special promo pricing on the entire Apple iPad line (which we cannot disclose here, for various boring contractual reasons). We’ll also have steep discounts on select Samsung HDTVs, and offering a free custom Success Pack with any notebook purchase.

Find out more about this Saturday’s Harley Giveaway Event here. We hope to see you there!

Some great gift ideas for Mother’s Day

In case you just awoke from suspended animation, only a few days remain until Mother’s Day (hint: it’s this Sunday).

In the interest of promoting family unity, Connecting Point has put together a few suggestions for you. Because this is definitely something you want to get right.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Connecting Point will be closed Sunday, March 31st

Connecting Point’s Medford location will be closed Sunday, March 31st, in observance of the Easter holiday. (Our Bend location isn’t open on Sundays.)

We wish everyone a safe and happy holiday. We’ll see you Monday. Peace.

No waiting for the new iMac at Connecting Point: in stock NOW!

All four iMac models are in stock at Connecting Point.

Since their introduction last fall, Apple’s stunning, ultra-slim iMac family has been in extremely short supply. Right now, if you wanted to order a 21.5-inch iMac from the Apple’s online store, you’d see this:

Even worse, if you wanted a sleek new 27-inch iMac, here’s how long you’d have to wait:

Miraculously, if you came into either of Connecting Point’s store locations for one of the new iMacs, you’d walk out the door with one right now. As in, immediately.

We’ve got plentiful stock of all four main models, ready for a good home. (Or office.) The product is identical, the price is the same. And the service and support you get from Connecting Point is not only excellent, it’s also free…and for life. So give in to that very human need for instant gratification: Get a new iMac, instantly, from your local Apple Specialist, Connecting Point Computer Centers.

UPDATE 02.20.13 | 12:30 PM: Well, that happened fast. Our Bend store now has only the $1299.99 model 21.5-inch iMac and the $1799.99 27-inch iMac in stock. We are expecting shipments of the other two models to be arriving shortly.

UPDATE 03.03.13 | 12:55 PM: Looks like Apple’s online store is finally catching up with iMac demand. Both sizes appear to be shipping within one to three days. But if we may again point out the obvious: the price is the same, the tech support is for life – and you can have it right here, right now by getting your new iMac from the friendly folks at Connecting Point.

BREAKING NEWS: Apple announces 128GB versions of iPad with Retina display (4th generation)

There’s no such thing as too much storage, especially when it comes to mobile devices.

Yesterday, Apple announced a 128GB version of the fourth generation iPad with Retina display. The 128GB iPad with Wi-Fi ($799.99) and iPad with Wi-Fi + Cellular ($929.99) models provide twice the storage capacity of the 64GB models. That means more room – a lot more room – for your photos, documents, projects, presentations, books, movies, TV shows, music and apps.

Connecting Point is your local iPad expert. We’ve carried the Apple iPad line since its first day of introduction (that was April 3rd, 2010, you may recall), we stock all kinds of accessories and enhancements for them, and – as with any purchase from Connecting Point – the tech support is free… and for life.

To find out more about these, or any other iPad models (including availability), we invite you to use our handy online information request form.

Connecting Point’s Medford store will be closed for inventory Sunday, January 6th, 2013

We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. (It’s no fun for us, either.)

FYI: Our Bend location is always closed Sundays. That’s just the way they roll.
