Apple Sends Invites for 'Let Us Loop You In' Media Event on March 21

(Without having read all 5 pages, yet)

Am I the only one who's quite sure the "loop" doesn't refer to watch bands? That, imho, would indeed be pretty lame as the headliner.

I call induction charging.

It's a play on words. Loop -- Infinity Loop where the event is held. Loop, a band. That's it. Plain and simple as Occam's Razor.

ATV OS will get an update

Plot twist: new Apple watch colors? Although to be honest, I have a hard time imaging new Apple Watch SKU's this close to an Apple Watch 2 release, if the rumors are true.

 

[thairish]

Probably a reference to new Apple Watch bands, especially the Space Black Milanese Loop.

I'm wondering if the colors are a hint that they will also do Milanese loops in aluminum to match the finishes of the colored sport cases?

 

[v0lume4]

sarcasm?

I'm not adding any value to the discussion by saying this but:

I love your Renault Megane profile pic.

 

[MrGuder]

Is it March 21st yet??

 

[Thunderhawks]

Will it be streamed? On keynote days, our whole office orders food in and watches together.

Save the money and time for this I don't see earth shattering info.

New Apple Watch wrist bands, OMG! is that even worth any info?

 

[Mattsasa]

The four iPhone colors are in the image. That should squash any rumors about bright pink or other colors on the SE.

I also take the "loop you in" tagline to mean we'll have a new Milanese Loop watch band.

Silver, space grey, gold, and rose gold MacBook Pros?

 

[Tthomas612]

It better not. Worst iPhone design of them all.

Idk though I think they rank in the bottom 2, but maybe not the worst ... I still find the 3G and 3GS to be very very ugly. The original iPhone I liked, but the next two I didn't. The 4 and 4s I did like, but at first I hated the 5, but when the 5s rolled around I started loving that design.

The 6/6s just hasn't grown on me and neither has the 3G/3GS

 

[BornAgainMac]

I want my Apple Belt to be Space Grey.

 

[MacLawyer]

I could care less about a new watchband. How about a little update love for Mac Pro, MacBook Air, and the Mini?

 

[Mildredop]

LET'S GO!

This just looks like Paul O'Grady to me.

Obviously "loop" refers to the area in which a wireless device can be charged:

I'm still mad they're making a 9.7 ipad pro just keep the air and just update the internals leave the ipad pro for the 12.9 size and 4 speakers.

iPad Pro Mini?
I agree though.

Exactly!!!

 

[navaira]

Has anybody asked Siri yet?

 

[NikeSG]

No need for a conference for apple watch band / iPhone 5 SE releases. What a snoozefest.

Unless there is a Macbook Pro redesign along with Skylake.
There absolutely has to be.

 

[bobob]

"iPhone with built in wristband loop CONFIRMED!"

It's happening!

 

[doelcm82]

Steve may have been proud of his 4", but Tim likes to show off his 5.5"

Sorry.

Let's keep it clean, folks. This isn't the Republican Presidential debate.

Five colors.

A disgruntled employee just gave away tim's passcode to his iphone -
Let - 3 letters
Us - 2 letters
Loop - 4 letters
You - 3 letters
In - 2 letters

Tim's passcode is clearly 32432.

I'm still mad they're making a 9.7 ipad pro just keep the air and just update the internals leave the ipad pro for the 12.9 size and 4 speakers.

Why would that make anyone mad? It's a name. And I don't know how 4 internal speakers make a table pro. I'd be perfectly thrilled with one really clear sounding speaker vs for tiny pin heads that emit something supposedly intelligible.

My conundrum is, will Apple make the new 10" a "pro" because it would require suspension of reality to call it "Air." I like the light feeling of the Air but also want the pencil. Will Apple give me my cake and let me eat it too? We'll see. (And I don't care what they call it if I can have both of these features in a 10")

 

[BruceEBonus]

All this conjecture? Put a sock in it. An iSock to be exact. Come on Tim this is what they want!.

Yearrrrghh! Awesome! C'mon, man! Sock it to us! Yeah, baby! Whooohooooo! Yeah!

ISock! ISock! ISock!

Ron Paul meme repurposed? Ron Paul with first iPhone, and rMBP

Q: 'Siri, What Are Your Political Views?' A: Ron Paul

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/18/siri-ron-paul-apple_n_4296673.html

Regardless of your own political persuasion, apparently your iPhone is a libertarian.

Siri, the voice-activated personal assistant on Apple devices, pulls up the Wikipedia page of everyone's favorite libertarian, former Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, when asked "Siri, what are your political views?"

Try it yourself. It not only worked for the YouTube video maker above, but also for dozens of people on Reddit and Facebook, as well as a few Huffington Post editors who tried it out.

We reached out to Apple for comment and will update if we receive it.​

The image in the announcement reminds me of the blue wallpaper from OS X Panther / Tiger.
