Do u think we will be getting the highly anticipated announcement for a press event this coming week. I for one think so. Who's with me? I have never been so pumped for a weekend to, well, end! I can't take much more of this being in the dark ****!

Who knows. I'm guessing invites will go out on the 14th and the actual event will take place on the 21st or 30th.

Why?
It makes good promotion/exposure/media sense to wait until the airwaves have cleared.

Whatever, it's just silly to say they're waiting for 9/11 to pass on 9/11 itself. Ofcourse they're going to wait after 9/11, they're not doing the press conference today :rolleyes: .

The invites will be sent out this week. If not, they'll be heading into the end of the month, which seems like a long wait for apple.

Yeah, i truly believe in the October 7th date and there is normally a two week window after the keynote before release and it's always a week early announcement before the keynote, so that aims at a Wednesday or Thursday invitation day, a 9/21 or 9/22 keynote, with a two week window until October 7th

Is today, Sept 14th the day?

Could this possibly be the eve of the announcement we've all been waiting for? Tomorrow marks one of the two (the second being next wed) most widely agreed upon dates (in rumor land) for Apple to announce the fall press event. Do u think we are less then 24hrs away from FINALLY knowing something? Or will tomorrow come and go just like today did?:confused:

I've been thinking recently that it is very possible that tomorrow invites would go out and the event would be next wednesday. My reasoning is that back to school incentives end on the 22nd and pretty much every year has been immediately followed by an announcement. It also fits in well for the projected oct 7th launch date, since Apple usually like 2-3 weeks between announcement and launch.

Exactly. We could see invites go out, but I wouldn't expect something highly anticipated being announced without invites sent out.

He only said he thought we might see invitations, not an actual announcement. Get off his back guys geez... :rolleyes:
