Sept. 9th Apple Event: What are you expecting?

The date is official, the invite as usual hints at the presentation's content, and it looks like new iPods all round.

There are lots of rumours floating around, from slimmer, taller iPod nanos, to GPS-enabled iPod touches, to wireless syncing with iTunes over Wi-Fi.

My personal expectation? Streaming of content from iTunes, over home networks, to iPods and iPhones.

What are you expecting?

I reckon a minor refresh of the Macbooks and perhaps larger capacity iPod touches?

Admittidly I would like an iPod Touch.

New version of the classic with wifi syncing.
New touch with wifi syncing and upto 30gb capacity.

If only Steve Jobs let people upgrade thier iPod Video 30gb to a 60gb classic or even a touch with 30gb.

Redmozzy, I doubt there will be any Macbook mention at all. That said, the Air was launched last year amongst the new iPods, so we never know...

Junel, the iPod touch already has up to 32GB of capacity.

Oh.
Thanks Nate

Wifi syncing would be nice. After all, you can wirelessly sync a Sony Ericsson/whatever phone with your Apple Address Book contacts/ iCal calendar but you can't wirelessly sync an iPhone. Fail.

I'm expecting smugness.

I'm pretty sure I won't be disappointed.

According to a lot of the other podcasts I watch/listen to, there seems to be the feeling that there will be a refresh of the Macbooks, albeit minor ones. CNet like was talking about it the other week.

A HUGE drop in prices.

I expect macbooks to go down to at least £500.
iMac's to drop slightly also.

Also, a drop of the combo drives.

Anybody want to take a bet?

I would actually buy a Mac Book if they (significantly) lowered the price. I've always wanted to try a Mac out but i'm not willing to fork out £700 at minimum just to give it a go.

Mac Mini's are £400.

Yeah, but i'm seriously running out of space on my desk to put anything.

I think I might have this on the nail.

Right a new iPod nano with a wider screen for better movie support
A Summary about a new mobileme service
The Macbook touch (why? patent images showing ways you could have OS X on a touch screen It's gotta be touch)
And an American Pay as you go package*

*That one's the worst but it just seems right for apple but I doubt AT&T would agree. It will come soon though depending how well O2's PAYG package works out.

That's my two cents and I bet I've got it !

Why are they changing back to the old Nano it's gay I much prefer fat nano

Also Mac Tablet it's gonna happen BOOM

Maybe Jobs is going to announce his retirement, Bill has just gone so maybe he wanted to beat his friend/rival by a few months and go. That and he has had problems with his health, at least this Event will prove to everyone that he's not dead.

Or maybe he's announcing new Apple astral projection technology which has bought him BACK from the dead

Well, I don't think I'll be scooping anything if I say "iTunes subscription plans". Which I find kind of funny given this week's debate.

I predict Steve Jobs announcing a load of minor upgrades and the crowd of fan boys jumping up and down clapping like seals

I think I'm getting as cynical as David about Apple ;-)

Does Steve Jobs release the product hes talking about in the Keynotes immediataly or later on?
