What I find interesting is that the iPad Mini resizes, meaning that the footer (and the statement) are never visible unless you scroll. The US Apple site doesn't do this. Does anyone know if this is new behaviour?
Most of the other international sites have the same behavior. The US site, actually, appears to be the exception. If Apple is being a "petulant" "childish" "immature" company and flipping the bird at the UK judge, then they've gone to elaborate multi-national lengths to provide plausible deniability.
It's also not the first time they've had dynamically adjusting product pages.
