Sounds like iPod to me. Sweet.
(I want my Macbook Pro! Hurry up apple! I can't take winsucks anymore)
Yesss! It's sunny here, the event has been announced, I'm very happy now!
Cue analysis of what "Let's rock" means!

I feel like a young school girl again, *shrieking of happiness.* :3
Well, sh*t. I am going to be in class at that time, but thankfully I'm going to be able to find out TODAY whether or not I can watch a liveblog during class!
"Let's Rock!" is about as ambiguous a name as it gets. EVER.
Here are my speculations (playing on WHY it's so goddamned ambiguous):
1) Definitely some kind of iTunes subscription service. Wouldn't be surprised to see Apple take the Xbox Live route, giving different durations of time for different prices (and they can't say that Microsloth copied them this time...)
2) New iPods, with a iPod touch being more or less the Prepaid iPhone; has GPS, mobile broadband (maybe with Sprint, since it's iPod instead of iPhone?), and a better iTunes Wi-Fi Store interface and uses.
3) iTunes 8.0, with the aforementioned subscription service, re-vamped radio, and a new On-Demand Television service. Also some iTunes announcements, like Walt Disney Records going iTunes Plus on EVERY album (even their catalog releases). However, since Metallica quietly creeped onto the iTunes Store, I think their surprise iTunes-related announcement is (finally, it's about f***ing time) BEATLES ON iTUNES!
4) A new iTunes-related device (can anybody say Kindle Killer?) and an
TV update.
That is all.

Well looking at that invite image I'd have to say that the new curved nano's are definitely coming. (and I preffered my invites better )
Still hoping for a revamped touch though, something more distinguished from the iPhone line.
Pretty please!

Just get rid of the green background for a white one and it'll look nice! But sadly this is not going to see fruition!
Will gray do? Heh, I was only trying to make it somewhat similar to the invite.. ah well!
