Apple has sent out invitations for a music-related event next week, and the smart money is on new iPods.
The invitation, titled "Let's Rock," went out Tuesday morning inviting media to the Yerba Buena Center for the Performing Arts in San Francisco next Tuesday at 10 a.m. PDT. Rumors have been building for weeks that Apple is set to introduce new iPods at what will be its fourth September iPod event in as many years.

Looking forward to it. :)

Yeah, I'm also looking forward to it as well. Be nice to see what Apple actually bring us. Then I think October it has been rumored that the MacBook/Pro range updates should be revealed.

Yeah, the MacBook's supposed to be getting a complete re-design I think?

I hope the new Nanos don't look like the pictures I've seen, I think the current model looks brilliant.

Hopefully, the macbook will follow suit and be aluminum like its brother, the MacBook Pro. Since most of Apple products are turning into the aluminum.

I thought that too, until the iPhone came out with a white back? :S

Better signal was the main reason for that to happen.

Looking forward, Might buy a curved back iPod touch for Christmas. Need a bigger size aswell, use this current one for jailbreak and stuff.

I'd quite like for them to release new MBs/MBPs - but I presume from the "Lets Rock" slogan (and iPod screen), this Sept 9th event is going to be strictly iPod.

Yeah, but there's going to be another event most likely for the MacBooks. Although MacRumors are saying in October sometime.

The new iPod is ugly.

There's no guarantee that's what it'll looks like. ;)

But Apple sent that picture to the press :S

Doubt it... Apple are usually very secretive and keep everything under wraps for as long as they can.

Also rumors that the ipod touch is also being re designed to look like the iphone 3g sorta shape. It will also have external volume controls it rumors.

Yeah i heard that also. Apple rarely send images to the media before the products are announced/released. They are very protective on their work.

Ignore this, read following.

If MacBook/Air get illuminated keyboards, I will half-die with happiness.
I'm getting a MB around late November, and it'd be so helpful if it gets illumated keyboard. Probably will seen as MBP has one and rumors state MB/MBA will be going MBP-style. ;)

I hope that means iPod touch's update won't be anything major? I only recently got one... :(
