Apple September 7th Media Event [Updated]

[AoWolf]

Ohh I just this these days so much its like a new an extra holiday

 

[lickily]

Seeing as the STORES are being updated, it has to be more than a phone doesnt it? BEcause I thought the service providers will be selling the phones, and not Apple itself direct....

Looprumors seems to be losing it, they are predicting the SECOND COMING (or I guess in Jobs case, that would be the third coming)

 

[Diatribe]

Not too exciting if the press release is true...

 

[Diatribe]

They put out the press release before the event? Someone always stuffs up.

Yep somebody seems to have f'ed up.

 

[Digipimp]

Let me say a 100 song holding cellphone would not be impressive to me.

 

[Lacero]

Less space than a mini. No wi-fi. Lame.

MacWorld's live update page is up: (nothing there yet)

iLounge is still dead.

 

[AoWolf]

Why would apple update their store for this?

Yep somebody seems to have f'ed up.

It's the kind of mistake that makes SJ call the whole thing off.

 

[Oryan]

There had better be more than just a phone. This is lame so far.

 

[Digipimp]

Why would apple update their store for this?

Probably not since they're not a cellular provider.

 

[AoWolf]

Probably not since they're not a cellular provider.

but people have said they are...

 

[Oryan]

Now the US store is down.

 

[xtbfx]

US store is down..

 

[mazola]

Speculation:

They're going to announce the 'Yo Yo Ma' Special Edition iPod!

 

[ph0rce]

I wanna be there!

 

[Diatribe]

It's the kind of mistake that makes SJ call the whole thing off.

It seems to be more though, or why would the stores be down?

 

[AoWolf]

It seems to be more though, or why would the stores be down?

Must be an iPod update at the least...

Arg all this reloading and clicking I guess my WCIII skills are good for something!

 

[Laslo Panaflex]

US apple store is now down, but for a cell phone only? Methinks there is more than a cell phone.

 

[Bear]

It seems to be more though, or why would the stores be down?

A good point.

Another good point is that we've only seen the Motorola press release.

This is an Apple event, we need to see the Apple press release(s).

 

[iMeowbot]

They're going to announce the 'Yo Yo Ma' Special Edition iPod!

Or the Apple iYoYo! 5 feet of string in your pocket!

 

[jonat8]

[Diatribe]

A good point.

Another good point is that we've only seen the Motorola press release.

This is an Apple event, we need to see the Apple press release(s).

Geez, people always wanting more....

 

[DreaminDirector]

engadget seems to have gone down too...

Now I'm information blind! Nooooooooooo!



Where is everyone else getting their info?

Jobs told the crowd that Apple has sold more than half a billion songs through its iTunes Music Store to date. "We are selling songs at a rate of 1.8 million songs per day," he explained. "iTunes has an 82 percent market share here in the US."

Jobs reiterated an Apple press release offered earlier today that it has 80 percent of the legitimate online music download market in the UK, and said that iTunes is doing "extremely well around the world." There are iTunes Music Stores in 20 countries, he said, representing 85 percent of the global music market.

WoW good job apple
