“With few details available, the validity of this remains uncertain, but Electronista claims that Apple may be holding a special press event on September 12th, 2006 based on an ‘official’ email sent to Your Mac Life,” arn reports for MacRumors.
arn reports, “The date corresponds to the start of Apple Expo Paris which runs from September 12th to 16th. It has already been announced, however, that there will be no Keynote event for the Apple Expo.”
Full article here.
Note: We have no confirmation of this reported event. Note also that the “Buy a Mac, get a free iPod nano” promo for college students ends on September 16th. Any significance to that chosen date?

new ipod for the holidays
other sites are reporting that Apple is setting up a simulcast of this even for their London office (European HQ I believe) which would jibe with an enhancement to European iTunes Media features like Video.
New everything… yeah baby, gotta love Apple and their toys…..
New Merom Macbooks! I’m opening my wallet
MDN “school” “Just in time for Back to School”
Let the Overzealous Unrealistic Apple Expectation Machine (OUEAM) begin its massive overhype.
Then, when it’s just a new shuffle or whatever, all the fanboys can start whining in unison about how Apple has somehow personally cheated them out of the goodness of life, and that they need to start taking care of the rabid fanbase by giving anyone who’s ever bought a Mac a free one.
Oh yes, you all know what I’m talking about.
Please let this be true. Options expiration is Sept 15 and I have several thousand shares at stake here.
New iPod phone
Widescreen gestures enabled video iPod with Wi-Fi
New form factor media center

All Macs with upgraded chips
New form factor MacBook Pro
.Mac merged with Google

MW: what. As it WHAT T F???
me: Apple’s London offices behind the store on regent street aren’t the european HQ. The plant in Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland is.
I think Steve is going to announce that Apple and Disney (he is on the board there) will be testing a new email tracking system. Everyone who forwards the email will get a new car, free Disney vacation, and $1000 per recipient of the forwarded mail. Think about it people!! Why do you think Apple and Disney merged? It was the Biblical fulfillment of the email tracking prophesy!
Repent or perish!
Lick me, beat me, take away my credit card . . . . I need new stuff!!!
PowerBook G5!!!!!!
last year at about this time there were 3 media events in a row to roll out new products for the fall buy-a-thon and Apple had their biggest quarter in history

AAPL Dude:
Nice.
Probably Core 2 Duo on MacBook, MacBook Pro (with a new enclosure) and iPod updates
September 12th will be good – if we can get through September 11th without any trouble.
I was just thinking that, are things not allowed to happen on september 11th anymore? I wonder how long this will continue.
Whew! Glad I’m not the only one with several thousand shares at stake. </sarcasm>
Hmmm… a thousand shares at $67.85 is worth $67,850, so several thousand shares would be worth… a lot more.
Watchoo doin’ hangin’ out at MDN, anyway?
MW aid — someone should come to my aid with several thousand shares of Apple stock.
October 3rd Declared “Day Against DRM”
http://defectivebydesign.org/en/blog/announce_day_against_drm
New iPod is coming, 16:9 aspect ratio, larger screen.
These Defective by Design fags should be protesting against Trusted Computing.
YES I CALL THEM FAGS because they are ignorant idiots.
DRM is nothing and pales incomparison next to a nearly invisible firmware level that acts like a operating system, connects to the internet and generally intercepts anything the OS sends to the hardware. That’s EFI in Intel based Mac’s.
Oh Steve Jobs is talking sweet, but a noose is slowly going around our necks.
chris: “I was just thinking that, are things not allowed to happen on september 11th anymore? I wonder how long this will continue.”
Things still happen – people are just not inviting you.
So our mission will be to drive a beatup old van with “NO TRUSTED COMPUTING” right into Apple’s NY shiny glass cube.
That’s reall balls for you, screw this lame as yellow raincoat protesting.
Grow some balls or be Defective by Design
Correction, “up to” instead of “into”, no advocation of violent life threatening behavior.
MDN needs a edit button.
Just say No to Trusted Computing:
MDN Magic Words: Little Snitch. Problem solved (<u>I think</u>).
First, my PowerBook battery sucks then my airport reception sucks. out
