Apple today sent our an invitation to media outlets for a special event to be held next week.
An invitation for the September 9th event, set for San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (whose calendar has been conspicuously blank for September 9th), is headlined “Let’s Rock.”
The invitation shows an iPod screen showing a silhouetted dancer holding an iPod with the text:
Let’s Rock

A special AD/DC iPod?
New iPods… okay….
I’m selfishly waiting for the new Macbooks/Pros. Much more interesting IMO.
Rock on-
First?
Awesome. New iPods.
New iPods and most of all, a new iPod price point.
New iPods, blah blah blah. I need a new laptop. Apple help a brother out. I’m tired of waiting for the refresh.
If you need a new laptop, go buy one. If you “need” it. Otherwise, be patient.
“Let’s Rock” Who said it had anything related to an iPod. “Let’s Rock” could relate to new Mac’s… “Let’s Rock” or “Let’s Kick Ass” with new Mac’s.
ok. so if the new iPods have been leaked, and everyone seems to know what they look like, then what is there to be excited about. Its clearly a “music” not movie event, and clearly no new macs, so what are we to be excited about? – There has GOT to be something to get fired up about. What is it?
Time to Buy more AAPL.
A new version of Garageband? Eh? Eh?
Kid Rock September 9th!?!?
Oh wait, I read that too quickly. Let me try again.
“Time to Buy more AAPL”
Just about now, as it tanked over the past 20 minutes, from $171 down to $166. There’s two more hours to go today, but it looks like markets aren’t friendly today either…

“Kid Rock September 9th!?!?”
I thought the same thing at first. I did a double take on that headline.
Hoping for newer cheaper iPod Touch. My iPod video is 3 years old. (And still kicking Zune’s A$$).
I’m already in love with the 4G nano form factor. That’s what I wanted Apple to do in the first place.

RE: ” (whose calendar has been conspicuously blank for September 9th),”
er… umm… every Monday on the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Sept. Calendar is blank! SO your point MDN is………….
Microsoft is going to license OSX… ditching Windows.
But, will it be snappier?
Finally, a music subscription service. Hasn’t that already been leaked?
@ MDN says what?
“er… umm… every Monday on the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Sept. Calendar is blank! SO your point MDN is………….”
er… umm… every the 9th is a TUESDAY, not a Monday! so YOUR point is what exactly?………….
Physician heal thyself!
The news certainly ain’t ‘rockin’ the stock price today.
Uh Oh: You left out Jobs is going to jail for stock options fraud but will die soon just as all of the iPhone 3Gs are recalled.
iPods with matte screens.
To those that only seem to read from this site: there will be no macbooks at this event. It has been suggested from the same source that got the info for this sep. 9th event that a seperate event for macbooks would be in October.
Touch GPS, help I can’t find you!
No more basic ipod. All ipods come with 2,5 g phone with pre-paid sim option (except maybe ipod shuffle). Great way to get new customers.
