Apple iTV? New iPods? iTunes in the Cloud? Mulling Apple's Upcoming News
![]() |
That's why it's no surprise that speculation is buzzing about what Apple plans to unveil next week at what it's termed a "special event." Little is known for sure about the upcoming event, but that's never stopped industry observers from sharing their thoughts on the possibilities of a revamped Apple TV (perhaps to be called iTV), enhancements to iTunes, and a wealth of other potential surprises. Hardware Central rounds up the rumors.
Apple set the Internet rumor mill ablaze this week when it issued invitations to selected media outlets for a "special event" at the Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco on Sept. 1.
As usual, the Cupertino, Calif.-based Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) has kept close-lipped about what it plans to announce, and as usual, speculation is running at a fever pitch. But the invitation features an image of an acoustic guitar with an Apple logo, so the general consensus seems to be that the announcement will be music-related -- possibly including updated iPods. Apple traditionally announces updates to its iPod line in September.
