Apple Event Confirmed for September 9th: 'Let's Rock'

[MacRumors]

Engadget confirms that there is an Apple media event for September 9th as rumored.

Apple is expected to release new iPod nanos and a new iPod Touch. While Macbook and MacBook Pro updates are also in the pipeline, we have heard suggestions that those will not see updates until at least October.

Bring it on! This would indicate an iPod / iTunes related event for the Tuesday the 9th and thus opens the door to a Mac event at a later date.

The Back-to-School promotion ends on Monday September 15, 2008 and as many on these forums know, Apple has a tendency to release Mac updates on Tuesdays (it's not absolute but heavily favored over other days).

Woo hoo...bring it on!

No laptop?

 

[reubs]

Just saw this. Very excited. Too bad I'll probably be away from Interwebs all next week. Hopefully things are available online on the date mentioned!

No laptop?

You'd have to wait for a later event probably. Rumours were there'd be another event a week after, so you'd have to wait until next week to find out.

 

[Detlev]

I don't want to rock. I want to compute—on a new laptop.

 

[Tosser]

You do realize its a music event i.e. iPod/iTunes?

O? another event in just a week after the previous? where did you hear that?

None at all!

 

[speakerwizard]

er, thats an ipod, which probably means this is an ipod event as everyone was expecting.

 

[heron88]

any significance to the amount of blue in the play bar?

 

[scouf]

October????!!

I can't believe it! That's what one of the Apple Store employees said about the release of the new macbook, back in July!

 

[kolax]

I'll see you here this time next week.

 

[aljawad]

Now let the various interpretations / speculations begin: what does Apple actually refer to with the "Let's Rock" in the invitation? Aren't we rocking already with the current iTunes store and various iPods?? What about the longish looking iPod the figure in the picture is holding? Why 5 stars? And what exactly is the significance of the progress bar? Is that picture displayed on an iMac - or is it a new cinema display?? Etc...

Personally, I CAN'T WAIT!!!

 

[VaatiKaiba]

Woohoo!!! Are iPods normally released simulataneously worldwide, or will we in Ireland have to wait a little longer?

 

[o0samotech0o]

woooooooo

im so exited!!!

 

[johata3]

Damn. Only iPods? Nice to hear that we're having new models but no MBP? I kind of want to hear some news about it before heading off to school.

 

[Kardashian]

Time to put the new Student Overdraft to good use.

I'll be tuning in

GOD let there be a 16GB+ iPod Nano.

PLEASE!
