16 years ago

“According to several sources and as has been widely expected, Apple will once again be holding its annual special event, possibly closer to mid-September this time,” Kara Swisher reports for AllThingsD.

“Because it is Apple, speculation is running high about what the iconic tech company will unveil next,” Swisher reports. “And most of it centers around the blinging of the iPod Touch to bring it into line with many of the features on the iPhone.”

“That is likely to include a front- and rear-facing camera, which would allow the device to use FaceTime, Apple video-calling software that works over Wi-Fi,” Swisher reports. “There could also be an A4 processor in the iPod, which will give the even more oomph.”

Swisher reports, “Other rumors run the gamut, such as a new cloud-based, streamy rethink of Apple TV (possible and exciting), a smaller iPad (silly and unlikely) and a streaming music service (useful and most likely).”
