Apple Invites Media to October 16 Event: 'It's Been Way Too Long'

[yaxomoxay]

What a negative spin on something so happy. Apple events are like ****ing holidays to me. I LOVE them

Pessimists are well informed optimists...

 

[H2SO4]

Without any previous rumours I doubt it.

Unfortunately Apple is too big now for things to be kept a secret!

Good job too. Much as I enjoy a little mystery I can imagine there is nothing as irritating as buying an, (extremely expensive), item and finding out that a new one will be released next month.

I'm not goig to go through the whole thread, did anyone mention that the graphic looks like a pressure-sensitive stylus?

Maybe, but you will have to go through the whole thread to find out...

Brushing up on my Mandarin for the live stream.

It took me 20 minutes to finally understand that joke.

I love that none of us can figure "It's Been Way Too Long" out. That excitement with Apple is clearly on its way back fast! If Tim Cook says "One More Thing" again this time, and blows us away again, Apple is officially back again post-Steve. Don't forget, Eddy Cue said that this fall & winter Apple will roll out the best product pipeline they've EVER done! So I have no doubt that they are gonna announce at least one thing that amazes us. I'm personally looking forward to:

iPad Prosemite (haha) or Macbook Touch
Touch ID on EVERYTHING
Wireless Charging (It's been way too long)
Mac Mini (should look exactly like that photo posted earlier)
New Apple Displays & Apple TV (the actual TV)
iMac Touch w/Retina
New MacBooks & a 17inch again (colors this time)

Can't Wait!!!!

25 and 30

25" 4K iMacs and Displays.

30" 5K iMacs and Displays

New Mac Minis to drive the displays.

60" 4K Apple TVs

New Apple TVs

New iPads

Jeeze just bought two new iPhones!!!! I should just have my paychecks sent directly to Apple. Cut out the middle man.

Well hopefully i can give my wallet a rest and buy all the new stuff they announce with Pay on my iPhone.

Same scenario here

Ipad MIni Pokemon Saphire Edition!

Pokemon Red and Blue on iOS?

Pikachu GOLD!

 

[Mackan]

We've been waiting way too long for 2 GB of RAM... yes.

 

[DJC631]

Please please please be a new Mini (with option for a GPU, don't make us use intel's graphics)

 

[mehtdosa11]

new mac mini and displays!

we can hope....and dream...lol!!

 

[mabhatter]

iPods???

I'd like a flash iPod... The traditional iPod with click wheel format, but with the support for Bluetooth speakers and no moving parts. Just make ONE iPod again, white, with 16GB or 128GB Storage. That should give enough price spread to ditch everything else.

Bonus points if it could sync (BT or lightening) with an iPhone to slurp down iCloud music in bulk. iCloud Drive copies for extra bonus points???

 

[The Doctor11]

We've been waiting way too long for 2 GB of RAM... yes.

iMacs come standard with 8 gigs

If they would just FIX the Apple TV software to work and not have a sucky UI, that would be a worthy new product.

If Apple decides to push out a software update at 8:00pm PST again and tie up my TV for 30 minutes, that thing is going flying out into the street. YAY, a whole new stupid design, but we still make you go to the shows with nothing new on them FIRST, before you scroll to select a show that is actually new.

Why are you even messing with Apple TV? Amazon fire tv with xbmc is the only way to go.

 

[bj3949]

My best guess is Apple TV, displays, and then major updates on everything Mac (including iPad Prosemite)

 

[Mtmspa]

They are going to announce...We have been making iPods for way too long and are discontinuing the entire line. Buy an iPhone and Watch instead.

 

[ElCharro]

has an ipad mini and plays learning games, some youtube (guilty) and the kids at her day care have cheap pads like samsung and those $50 walmart tablets but all want the IPAD she has! crazy i know.

Cheers for that. Absolutely fascinating & so relevant to the thread.

 

[Peace]

Wow you guys get up before the birds do.


It's been way too long.


New Mac Mini/Apple TV.

Plus the usual stuff. Retina iMac.Bla Bla Bla.

 

[Starflyer]

Steve Job's return is confirmed!

 

[dissdnt]

Boom!

 

[RedRaven571]

New Apple tv and or new Mac mini.

A combo!! Mac Mini TV......

 

[AdonisSMU]

Hopefully we get products that are bend proof.

 

[JeffDM]

Mac minis seem to be the only major thing that's been way too long. Maybe AppleTV? iPads get updated every year, I think there was a bump in speed for iMac, the design is good for another year or so before another makeover.

Clearly related to iMacs. You guys are focusing on the visual elements too much and not the white space.. See how it mimics the mac logo. Specifically the nose and the mouth.

Also, i don't the leaf represents a stylus. Possibly a finger. Apple would never go stylus. If they did the world would freeze over. Also, I really don't see them going touch screen mac, and honestly I think that feature is pointless.

I don't see the iPad headlining events any more. Its kind of fell in place with the other products and doesn't have a break out appeal. Two events, iPhone / Innovation and then anything else.
