Very true. Apple might have been planning it for that date but pushed it back with the iPad mini.

And when it is released will you cancel your account forever so we don't have to read anymore of your nonsense?
They'll have more than enough to talk about: iOS 6, new iPhone with one or two exclusive features, and maybe a new app or two.

Protip: Take out your stupid Bluetooth earpiece when out in public, especially when you take a picture with Slash.
And no, it doesn't make you look like you belong on Star Trek.

So if you're right, you'll gain some bragging rights. If you're totally wrong, youll lose nothing. What is your point? Do or say something that'll cost you. Otherwise it's just empty words.
It really depends on what you do with it. While I love the large screen, attempting to use 10-inch iPad with one hand over extended period (or even short period of time) isn't easy.
8-inch is probably the largest form factor for allowing one hand operation. If rumors are true, my only complaint would be non-retina screen.
It was an iPhone/media event (they didn't launch new iPod touches like previous years, though).
That's why I brought the point up. Are they not going to talk about other iOS devices? If they do, what are they going to have to talk about except new product introductions at the other event?
I just think it is funny and distinctly American that the most reliable source of rumor confirmations is a guy named Jim Dalrymple who looks like that and hangs out with, let's just say, artists with a bit of an out of the box style.

You might not want one or see the need for one, but that doesn't mean others can't benefit from one. I think it's a great idea and I'll be buying one as a gift for someone - or, if it doesn't come out, I'll be buying the Nexus 7 instead. Sometimes the iPad is a little too big.
Not sure what you mean by an "iPhone/media event" as opposed to a plain old iPhone event. How was the 4S launch different from previous iPhone launches?
With regard to the iPod touch, I don't recall them ever being launched at iPhone events.
The 4S wasn't. The CDMA iPhone 4 media event was the one that was different.
They've never been launched at iphone events because the 4S was the first fall iphone launch and there was no iPod touch update. So, there was no separate media event for that. Now they're saying both events are going to happen within a month of each other. So, they couldn't have many new stats to rattle off about iOS devices at the second event if the first had them, so my question is which event will they choose for that. Basically, is there enough new about the new iPhone that will get pushed to later, or is a combined iPod/iPad mini event so jam packed they don't want to talk about stats?
But he's Canadian.
They just did one last year, to demo the 4S' graphics. Though they also released new iPods, so they didn't really have time for any more.
The hate is strong with this one...
I am sure Apple will consider your intellectual and constructive opinion... and still do whatever they want. Making you mad about it (who knows why, but here we are), is just the icing on the cake
I absolutely can not wait for a mini! I must be an idiot!
