The invitation, titled "Let's Rock," decided Tuesday morning inviting media to your Yerba Buena Center for that Performing Arts in S . f . Chanel Galaxy S3 Casenext Tuesday at 10 a.m. PDT. Rumors have already been building for weeks that Apple is about show them new iPods at after that be its fourth SeptemberiPod event in as much years.
We'll be there, and we'll be live-blogging the presentation, so be sure to yield here next Tuesday.
Were expecting Apple to support a September iPod-related event since March, when audio chipmaker Wolfson informed its shareholders not wearing running shoes used to be ignore within the kind of next-generation media players from "a major Tier 1 customer" who planned a third-quarter launch. Launching in September gives Apple lots of time to form distribution and marketing moms and dads iPods before the holiday shopping season, as the company sells the bulk of its iPods for that year.
But what actually do Jobs and Co. prefer to trot out while doing this episode of those trademarked event? While we conducted our iPod poll back in May, readers said the things they wanted most inside the new iPod were more capacity and wireless connectivity.
(Credit:iLounge)By far the most persistent buzz during the last month has circled around a revamped iPod Nano which brings back the long, slim design from earlier generations but provides for a widescreen video display as that comes with the current generation.

And Apple says that iPod customers responded well in the discounted with a iPod Shuffle, so perhaps it would not be much with the surprise if Apple decides to test out how they'll answer customer more capacity about the same price point.
What else could perhaps be coming? Apple is anticipated to push out a OS X 2.1 in the course of September to move forward away from the widespread bugs introduced and 2.0 release, and next week's event may additionally deliver a preview of a software. The wireless industry have been around in town that week on the CTIA Wireless IT and Entertainment show simply a block out from the Yerba Buena Center, i expect Jobs can take the occasion to push out sales numbers for this iPhone 3G.
We expect Apple introducing new notebooks fairly soon, nevertheless would seem quite odd to try and cram new notebooks correct major music-related event. Your iTunes music-subscription rumors resurfaced recently, so which will be a possibility. And Apple's decision to focus Louis Vuitton Galaxy S3 Case on "rock" gives credence (of sorts) to come about of predicting aniTunes-Beatles partnership to reach before every upcoming Apple music event, figuring I'm going to be right at some point.
