Apple/iPod Event on Sept 5

August 31st, 2007

from the LA Times

Following its custom, Apple recently sent invitations to analysts and reporters for a Sept. 5 event but didn’t say what it was about. The invitation had pictures of music albums, fueling speculation that Apple would show off something related to the digital music and video player, which dominates its market.Two music industry executives said Jobs intended to announce a vastly improved version of the iPod with a larger video screen, a touch-screen interface and other features similar to Apple’s iPhone, an iPod that doubles as a cellphone.

can you imagine if the new iPods are gonna have touchscreens as big as the iPhone’s? oh mehn, it’s going to be tough fighting the temptation to buy one!

curse you steve jobs and your beltless pants!
