Must have been mentioned, but the gfx of the invitation looks like a depiction of the new phone with a finger on the home button.
"Infinity Loop" available from the Apple Stores starting tomorrow...
Will the new iPad be available for purchase/make it to delivery before the 31st of march you think?
Edit: now that i think of it, pre orders probably start the next week with shipping happening 2 weeks later. Bah. No new toys for me on vacation.

Seems that's one of the lesser suspicions given the likelihood of a new phone and possibly something iPad related.
He;s been unofficially in charge, since Jobs was mostly focused on product design when he got sick, arguably since 2010; Apple got most of its growth since then.
Well, certainly more than just the Apple Watch bands (if those are even part of the event) you were mentioning.
Aside from wanting to see an iRodeo ;-), I am sure I am the only human being alive who would actually appreciate the iPod like loops for the iPhone. I mean I am paranoid I will drop my phone!
It's certainly based on the idiom "rope you in" - - which is odd, because it has quite a negative connotation, as in persuade/trick you into doing something you'd rather not do: eg: I got roped into buying Girl Scout cookies by the receptionist at work.
'Still' no mention of a laptop announcement, not even a release roumor, this isn't good.

More likely it comes from the idea of keeping someone "in the loop": http://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/in+the+loop
Don't get me wrong, but I don't get the point why people are so excited about the possible new watch bands. If I'm not mistaken there are several other colors and different models of bands available from other brands / on Amazon or elsewhere.
What am I missing here? I don't even think it needs to be mentioned in the keynote at all, it's just a band!

Oh ye of little faith. That's the kind of thinking that would have criticised Steve for advertising Manila envelopes in January 2008.
I hope that was their intent, but it doesn't come across that way to my ear.
