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

I'm beginning to think the rumors of two events, one in the 9th for iPods and iTunes, and another event the 16th for new Macbook, Macbook Pros, and MAc Mini updates.
No, your looking to much into it...
I really hope this is just a iPod event, I like my new macbook pro
I think it is farily obvious that this is the case. The banner suggests an iPod-related event.
They're hardly going to spend a lot of time showing minor case revisions to the Touch and nano, then "by the way here's a radically redesigned new MacBook and MacBook Pro that's 5 times faster"
new features in iTunes would be good.. maybe see the iTMS subscription thing happen?
new ipods - hope them nano pics floating around the net are fake!!
somehow i'm not as excited as i normally am at the announcement of an apple event

Rounded Corners
If this is the actual invitation, I wonder about the rounded corners. Neither my Nano 3g nor my iphone have rounded corners in their ipods.
Hope a "round" new ipod nano doesnt have round screen corners as major new feature.
Am not sure what to make of "Let's Rock", but if you connect rock with independence and freedom this leads me to some form of iTunes Unlimited.
Are there any indications for an expansion of the iTunes movie rentals to be more international. At the moment germany and other european countrys are not really covered. Not to speak of the rest of the world.
Anyways looking forward to the event

can't seem them changing the touch too much... as it's closely linked to the iPhone ...
might be a few aesthetic changes.. might be the curvier back like the iPhone 3G perhaps?
but who knows? only 7 days to go

Since no one else has done it yet, I'll be the first (this time):
BEATLES on iTunes
Finally!
Or not.

I'm hoping they add some clickwheel functionality to the iPod-touch, and therefore the iphone. Maneuvering around a song (or a podcast) is an enormous pain on the iphone.
I suspect this is iTunes 8.0 (which must be driving the need for an event) coupled with relatively minor updates to the Touch and Nano.
The new Intel quad-core mobile chips are set for production release in October. If so, I just hope the battery life isn't awful. While I'm tempted to gripe, if they took longer on the redesign and release a higher quality 1.0 product, it'll be worth it. If it's delayed just because they wanted to release a toy first, well, it would just continue the trend away from the Mac as a core product.
The real key will be if 10.5.5 shows new MB and MBP identifiers. Then we'll at least know we're close.
Death by a thousand Tuesdays

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.
Geezus people will you PLEASE read the entire friggin post before blabbering bout stuff huh?
It says there is a possibility of a seperate October event most likely for macbooks. It was a general assumption that they would go against their norm and have a combined ipod and macbook event. It looks like they are not going to do that and will indeed have seperate events.
