New iPods
According to The Times online a new range of iPods are due to be unveiled tomorrow including the "much anticipated" touch screen ipods.

Should be worth a gander, especially as my parents are just about to fly out to the states...

Re: New iPods tomorrow - Rumor!

Not really, previous announcements have been timed to coincide with the launch of the products in shops and on the apple web site.

Re: New iPods tomorrow - Rumor!
True. In terms of hardware, Apple don't tend to announce anything until they are ready for launch.

Re: New iPods tomorrow - Rumor!
Product announcements in advance of their actual availability are very rare in the world of Apple - if they do announce this tomorrow, brief your parents as to the whereabouts of the nearest Apple store to their holiday apartment.

Not least by Paul McCartney (but he didn't specify dates).

It's just the last few weeks have seen Ringo Star and Lennon added to the store, and, in the press release for this event, they had the tag line 'The Beat goes on'. Which were the last words from the last press release from the Beatles.
Could be a coincidence but it seems to be likely now is the time...

Absolutely, especially as my 30gig 4G model is filled to breaking point and i was thinking about a new one whilst they were out there anyway.
IF this is the case and, please let it be so, IF it has digital radio, its a god damn certainty.

Re: New iPods tomorrow - Rumor!
Hmmm, I ordered a new Macbook last week and since then it's not sitting at a processing stage. I wonder if they are getting something done to them as well and they've delayed the order till the announcement
*Crosses fingers and hopes*

Athough it is a mock-up, Gizmodo do have good sources at Apple (Steve Jobs reads the blog)

I ordered my new macbook yesterday  It's just sitting there but it takes 4 days to take I guess...I not sure what stages it's meant to go though.
I be very surprised if they updated computers at this event though, it a iPod event.
