Today is one of those days that us Apple fanboy’s and girls look forward to, Apple’s special music event. Although, I don’t see anything big being announced, just some iPod and iTunes upgrades. Gizmodo, along with other sources, have posted about an iPod price drop change in the apple online store, which probably got changed in error, since they don’t update the site until after the keynote happens.
The 32GB touch is now $279 (down from $399), the 16GB is $249 (was $299), and the 8GB model is $189 instead of $229. The iPod nano is at $129 (8GB) and $149 (16GB), while the Classic is down to $229 (was $249).
Apple probably realized of this mistake and thats why if you go on Apple.com/store right now its just has a picture saying they’re updating the store and you can’t view it at the moment. I screenshoted it below:
So maybe they’ll be announcing a new iPod? It would be cool if they would release an iPod HD or something of that sort with the Zune HD coming out in a couple of days.
Now the question is, will Steve Jobs be back as keynote presenter? Nope… It will most likely be a Philnote again. Steve might possibly be present at the event, but I think it might be safer for him to wait till 2010 to make a comeback.
The keynote starts at 10am PST and you can be sure that I will be following a couple of liveblogs that will follow the event including: Gizmodo, and Macworld.
