Apple Media Event Scheduled for September 1st

picture this: streaming.
as for local storage, I would bet on a new timecapsule that provides caching of media from a streaming cloud service and/or syncing of locally created media (it's simply mirroring your mac's music and video folders... think about it, you could use the basic time capsule backup files as your service.).
Call me crazy, but apple allowing a non-apple built capability (NAS or a USB connected external drive) seems silly for a HW company.
AppleTV with 1080p and external storage support. That's all!
I am so easy to please.
I'm even easier to please... Just an ATV with external storage support would be nice
although the iOS / app store ideas are seriously growing on me.... I see a whole world of possibilities there, I'm just not sure apple are that committed to the atv project to go that far... My best guess for what gonna go down in a week's time.
Upgraded iPod Touch
-Retina Display
-Two Cameras with Flash
-16, 32, and 64GB sizes
-Gyroscopic Sensor
-The A4 Processor
-Facetime through E-mail
-Built in Mic
UNLIKELY BUT COULD HAPPEN
-Very small price decrease ($179, $279, $379)
Upgraded iPod Nano or Shuffle
-Touchscreen Nano or Shuffle
Other things that could happen but I wouldn't count on it.
iTV announcement
Some new accessories.
Those are my guesses.

if theres a USB port people could store stuff on USN flash drives and exen external drives.
The problem you kids need to understand about streaming is while its all great, its only good if you have a fast internet connection. I have fios so i'm all good, but not everyone has fast internet.
Interesting speculation, but here's a guitar player's take: The 2 dots "further up the neck" idicate that is the 13th fret. On every guitar (that I've ever played/owned) odd frets are dotted starting at the 5th fret and the 13th fret has two dots.
Now, what could be more exciting than a new Apple TV? Well lots of things, really:
1. 64 bit Carbon-free iTunes
2. 64 bit iLife '11 suite
3. The new mystery iLife application whatever it may be.
4. iOS 4.1 update
5. iLife for iPad maybe?
6. Mac OSX 10.6.X Software Update
And there you go! Six things that are more exciting/interesting than the new Apple TV. Of course, I'm quite open to have my mind changed once I see what gets announced!
-Jobs walks on stage
-Talks about amazing iPad and iPhone 4 success
-Announces they have ramped production of both
-Three Things for today. iLife, iOS (and iPods), and AppleTV

-Garageband gets revamped
-"Mystery application" an iOS app builder like Android's App Inventor. "App Innovator"
- iLife goes on sale today for $79
-iOS 4 devices can download iLife for iOS as a suite for $40 or apps for $10 (iMovie, Garageband, iWeb, and iPhoto)
-iOS: iPad gets iOS 4 friday. Expose runs the multi-tasking show here, and you can run Retina Display apps without pixel doubling
-"iPod touch is a great device, but we decided to redesign it all"
-Announces new iPod touch (almost indistinguishable from iP4)
-Front Facetime cam as well as 5MP Camera in the rear with LED Flash
-still 8.5mm
-Retina Display, A4, FM/HD Radio with Tagging.

Hey that is great! Only thing missing is iTunes X
Sweet. Hopefully we see iOS4 for the iPad....and of course a new version of iLife with the much rumored new piece of software!
Yep, though that too, until I checked: http://www.cepro.com/article/hdmi_corner_power_on_the_buss/K330
I wonder if iLife 2011 will ditch the discs prompting people to buy the software digitally and download it via iTunes?
another thought. What if iTunes gets rewriten and gets a new name? Since itunes is more then just music.

Wow, one of the most probable event.... I would just add:
- The new iLife app could be about "Graphic & Design", such an iDesign, to create graphic content to be used in HTML5 webpage, iTunes LP, App
- iTunes update to work with iTunes.com (iTunes X might comes with 10.7)
- iChat features to call FaceTime through email.... now connected to any Macs too
- Game Center update, will also be accessible by the Apple TV

I think it would be amazing if, instead of a new $99 Apple TV/iTV, they released a $99 accessory dock for iOS devices that used the device's CPU to decode media streamed from iTunes/the cloud and push it to the TV via HDMI.

if it's lady gaga it'll be Teeth hahahaha because the apple symbol
something exiting but still rockish it's safe .... or it could be Millionaire
i can here it now "I wanna be a millionaire so freak'n baaaad
haha what
haha no they remake their own version "apple is a multi-billionaire compannnnyy, They can make all the things microsoft never had!!!!"
True, but that doesn't count up to $99 worth of apple hardware.
So maybe the $99 is not targeting the home theater environment but everyday iphone/ipod/ipad users with broadband, wifi and a big screen with free hdmi port? And for another $29 I'm sure Apple with provide a composite/stereo cable so some of the legacy home-theater owners can enjoy it too
well point of it is: What are the 2 ways you can mulitplayer with other ios device users??? 1.bluetooth(if enabled) and 2.Over local wi-fi.
what this is gonna is to allow multiplayer ONLINE, kinda like xbox live or PSN.... it will probably be free though unlike xbox live
I can't WAIT to see how many upset and/or disappointed fans there will be when this even is over. You guys have got so much **** listed and high expectations, it's unbelievable. I just can't wait for the CHAOS next wednesday.
On the other hand, if the iPod Classic gets eliminated from the iPod lineup when they could change the look upgrade hard drive or whatever, I WILL RANT all day Wednesday and blame it these idiots who believe it will be discontinued and thanking them for trying to be so creative to get rid of it.

Actually, cross off my desire for a 7 inch iPad on the 1st...subscription based iTunes would be a God-send.
I agree, I think we'll see is new iPods, iOS 4.1, iTV, and iTunes 10 (or X if it's 64-bit) with the rumored 99 cent TV shows. No iWork, no iLife, no iTunes.com streaming.
